A unified multiscale modelling framework to explore the brain excitatory-inhibitory balance: application to multiple sclerosis

The paper presents a multiscale brain modelling framework combining DCM and TVB to study excitatory-inhibitory balance in multiple sclerosis, finding altered connectivity patterns and their association with clinical and behavioural outcomes.

Body size interacts with the structure of the central nervous system: A multi-center in vivo neuroimaging study

This study shows body size parameters significantly correlate with brain and spinal cord MRI metrics and should be included in neuroimaging studies.

The European Prevention of Alzheimer's Dementia (EPAD) MRI Dataset and Processing Workflow

The paper describes an MRI dataset and processing pipeline for the EPAD study, identifying quality control features and image-derived phenotypes related to aging and dementia.

Application of mechanistic methods to clinical trials in multiple sclerosis: the simvastatin case

The paper applies multivariate mechanistic models to a clinical trial in multiple sclerosis to investigate pathways linking simvastatin to clinical outcomes.

Challenges and perspectives of quantitative functional sodium imaging (fNaI)

This paper investigates quantitative functional sodium imaging (fNaI) to measure 23Na concentration changes during motor tasks, showing sensitivity to distributed functional alterations in brain regions.

Progression of regional grey matter atrophy in multiple sclerosis

This study identifies the sequence of grey matter atrophy progression in multiple sclerosis using longitudinal MRI data and shows its association with disability accumulation in relapsing-remitting MS.

Deep grey matter volume loss drives disability worsening in multiple sclerosis

This study shows that deep grey matter volume loss predicts faster disability progression in multiple sclerosis, with specific patterns in different disease subtypes.
