PURPOSE: Changes in regional brain activity and functional connectivity (FC) in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) following spinal cord injury (SCI) remain unclear. This study used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate regional brain activity and FC in NDO patients after SCI.
METHODS: Resting-state fMRI scans were obtained from 20 NDO patients after SCI and 20 healthy controls (HCs). Regional brain activity was measured using regional homogeneity (ReHo). Subsequently, a seed-based whole-brain FC analysis was performed using the regions with significantly different ReHo as seeds. Partial correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between FC values and clinical scores in the NDO patients with SCI.
RESULTS: Compared to HC, patients with NDO exhibited significantly decreased ReHo in the right medial frontal gyrus (MFG). Furthermore, compared to HC, NDO patients demonstrated stronger FC between the seed (right MFG) and voxels in the left pyramis, right cerebellum posterior lobe, and left middle temporal gyrus. Weaker FC was observed between the seed (right MFG) and voxels in the right paracentral lobule. Correlation analyses revealed that the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score and urgency urinary incontinence scores were positively correlated with FC values between the right MFG and the left pyramis.
CONCLUSION: SCI-related NDO patients exhibit abnormalities in both regional brain activity and FC, with supraspinal connectivity deviation extent associated with the severity of lower urinary tract symptom. This study contributes to a better understanding of the potential supraspinal neural mechanisms underlying SCI-related NDO.
