Growing evidence suggests that the glymphatic system, driven by aquaporin-4 (AQP4) water channels, plays a key role in Parkinson’s disease (PD). We examined the impact of specific AQP4 variants on glymphatic function using diffusion tensor imaging along ...

The occurrence and development of glioma are closely related to neuro-immunity. The glymphatic system (GS), a brain waste-clearance pathway, plays a critical role in neuro-immunity. Diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) is a non-invasive method to assess glymphatic dysfunction. This study had the following aims: (I) to

Abstract Purpose This study investigated glymphatic function in tremor disorders using the diffusion tensor imaging–derived ALPS (analysis-along-the-perivascular-space) index, a non-invasive surrogate of perivascular fluid movement ...

In recent years, the glymphatic system has received increasing attention due to its possible implications in biological mechanisms associated with neurodegeneration. In the field of human brain mapping, this led to the development of diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) index. While this index has been repeatedly used

BackgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is often accompanied by cognitive dysfunction, though its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Impaired glymphatic system function may contribute to cognitive impairment.

Glymphatic alterations may underlie neurodegeneration in alpha-synucleinopathies. Reduced Diffusion-Tensor Imaging ALong the Perivascular Space (DTI-ALPS), a proxy of perivascular glymphatic activity, has been scarcely studied in isolated REM sleep ...

INTRODUCTION We evaluated whether the brain glymphatic drainage function estimated by the diffusion tensor imaging along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS) index relates to white matter (WM) integrity, Alzheimer's disease (AD) neuropathology, resting ...
