Abstract

ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate early brain microstructural changes discovered using magnetization-prepared two rapid acquisition gradient echo (MP2RAGE) sequence and cerebral hemodynamic using TCD for cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction.MethodsWe enrolled 43 patients with acute cerebral infarction and 21 healthy people in the study, who were subjected to cognitive assessments, the MP2RAGE sequence, and a cerebral hemodynamic examination. A total of 26 brain regions of interest were investigated. Furthermore, we used cerebral hemodynamics to explain brain microstructural changes, which helped us better understand the pathophysiology of cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction and guide treatment.ResultsT1 relaxation times in the left frontal lobe, right frontal lobe, right temporal lobe, left precuneus, left thalamus, right hippocampus, right head of caudate nucleus, and splenium of corpus callosum were substantially different across the three groups, which were significantly correlated with neuropsychological test scores. CI group patients had significantly lower cerebral blood flow velocity than those in the N-CI and Normal groups. The receiver operating curve analysis revealed that most T1 relaxation times had high sensitivity and specificity, especially on the right temporal lobe and right frontal lobe. There was a potential correlation between T1 relaxation times and MMSE scores through TCD parameters.ConclusionThe MP2RAGE sequence can detect alterations in whole brain microstructure in patients with cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction. Brain microstructural changes could influence cognitive function through cerebral hemodynamics. T1 relaxation times on the right temporal lobe and the right frontal lobe are expected to be a prospective biomarker of cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction.
