Synopsis

The present study aimed to explore functional and structural alterations in hippocampus and its subfields in post-stroke dementia (PSD). We collected resting-state fMRI and DTI data from 24 PSD patients, 36 post-stroke nondemented (PSND) patients and 21 normal controls (NC). Comparisons between groups found that PSD patients showed subfield-specific changes in the microstructures of hippocampus compared with the other two groups. Moreover, we not only found more PSD-related changes of functional connectivity with cortical regions in the subfields than entire hippocampus, but also revealed the different contributions of subfields on the connectivity changes of entire hippocampus.
