Brain connectome subtypes predict Alzheimer's progression independent of pathology burden
Radiology AI literature (PubMed)6d ago
In mild cognitive impairment, brain connectome subtyping revealed a 'compromised' subgroup with extensive disruption and a 'preserved' subgroup. Despite similar Alzheimer's pathology burden, the compromised group showed faster cognitive decline and elevated progression risk (exa…
- Multi-center cohort study (sample size not reported) identified two MCI subtypes based on structural and functional connectome disruption.
- Transcriptomic analyses linked these connectome patterns to mitochondrial, synaptic, and neuroimmune processes.
- Limitation: No external validation reported; sample size and generalizability unclear.
