White Matter-Gray Matter Correlation Analysis Based on White Matter Functional Gradient. [PDF]
Background: The spontaneous fluctuations in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals of the brain’s gray matter (GM) have been interpreted as representations of neural activity variations. In previous research, white matter (WM) signals, often considered noise, have also been demonstrated to reflect characteristics of functional activity ...

Regional vulnerability of brain white matter in vanishing white matter
AbstractVanishing white matter (VWM) is a leukodystrophy that primarily manifests in young children. In this disease, the brain white matter is differentially affected in a predictable pattern with telencephalic brain areas being most severely affected, while others remain allegedly completely spared.

What's the Matter? White Matter? [PDF]
Although many children acquire reading skills rapidly with some formal training, for others learning to read is among the most difficult challenges they face in the first few years at school. The reasons for these large individual differences in skill acquisition are still obscure, with the relative contribution of biological and environmental factors ...

Interleukin-6, age, and corpus callosum integrity. [PDF]
The contribution of inflammation to deleterious aging outcomes is increasingly recognized; however, little is known about the complex relationship between interleukin-6 (IL-6) and brain structure, or how this association might change with increasing age.

Disconnected aging: cerebral white matter integrity and age-related differences in cognition. [PDF]
Cognition arises as a result of coordinated processing among distributed brain regions and disruptions to communication within these neural networks can result in cognitive dysfunction.

White dwarfs and Galactic dark matter [PDF]
We discuss the recent discovery by Oppenheimer et al (2001) of old, cool white dwarf stars, which may be the first direct detection of Galactic halo dark matter.

Breaking away from prevailing views of dementia that rely heavily on the role of the cerebral cortex, the new perspective put forth here highlights white matter-cognition relationships, presenting an expanded view of dementia and its neurobiological origins.

Vanishing white matter disease [PDF]
Vanishing White Matter Disease (VWMD) is one of the most prevalent inherited white matter disorders in childhood, with a large variety in the age of onset and rate of progression. The classical and most common type shows its onset between the ages of 2 and 6 years in children with initially normal motor and mental development.

Probing white-matter microstructure with higher-order diffusion tensors and susceptibility tensor MRI. [PDF]
Diffusion MRI has become an invaluable tool for studying white matter microstructure and brain connectivity. The emergence of quantitative susceptibility mapping and susceptibility tensor imaging (STI) has provided another unique tool for assessing the ...

The Microvasculature of the Cerebral White Matter: Arteries of the Subcortical White Matter [PDF]
The microvascular architecture of the human cerebral subcortical white matter was studied. Most of the subcortical arteries ran straight through the cortex, but upon entering the white matter, they began to coil, loop, and spiral. Vascular stains showed wide spaces between the adventitial sheaths and blood vessels. The blood vessels coiled, looped, and
