A diffusion tensor imaging-based multidimensional study of brain structural changes after long-term high-altitude exposure and their relationships with cognitive function by Ning Liu, Li Feng, Shuangwei Chai, Hailong Li, Yuanyuan He, Yongyue Guo, Xin Hu, Hengyan Li, Xiangwei Li, Zan Zhou, Xiaomei Li, Yonghong Huang, Wanlin He, Xiaoqi Huang, Xiaoqi Huang, Yunhong Wu, Jinli Meng

“…BackgroundBrain structure changes after long-term adaptation to the high-altitude environment; however, related studies are few, results are in consistent, and long-term effects on cognitive function and pathophysiological mechanisms are unclear. Therefore, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was used to investigate the damage to white matter fiber tracts and correlations between brain structural abnormalities and cognitive function.MethodsForty healthy Han people living on the high-altitude and 40 healthy Han people living on the plains were enrolled in this study and underwent magnetic resonance imaging, emotional state assessment, and cognitive function tests. …”
