Neural substrates of neuropsychological profiles in dystrophynopathies: A pilot study of diffusion tractography imaging. by Laura Biagi, Sara Lenzi, Emilio Cipriano, Simona Fiori, Paolo Bosco, Paola Cristofani, Guia Astrea, Antonella Pini, Giovanni Cioni, Eugenio Mercuri, Michela Tosetti, Roberta Battini

“…<h4>Introduction</h4>Cognitive difficulties and neuropsychological alterations in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD, BMD) boys are not yet sufficiently explored, although this topic could have a relevant impact, finding novel biomarkers of disease both at genetics and neuroimaging point of view. The current study aims to: 1) analyze the neuropsychological profile of a group of DMD and BMD boys without cognitive impairment with an assessment of their executive functions; 2) explore the structural connectivity in DMD, BMD, and age-matched controls focusing on cortico-subcortical tracts that connect frontal cortex, basal ganglia, and cerebellum via the thalamus; 3) explore possible correlations between altered structural connectivity and clinical neuropsychological measures.…”
