Description
Mingqing Xu and others used MRI to study grey matter and cortical shape changes in rheumatoid arthritis, in 2026. Rheumatoid arthritis is known for joint disease, but its effects on brain structure and their links to medical traits were less clear. Built brain changes could help explain mental and mood symptoms in these people.
Forty-one people and thirty-four matched healthy controls underwent high-clearing built MRI, studied with voxel-based morphometry for grey matter volume and surface-based morphometry for gyrification, thickness, sulcus depth, and fractal dimension. Whole-brain fit tested links to medical traits. The study maps brain built gaps in rheumatoid arthritis and their medical correlates.
