The altered spontaneous neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease and its predictive value for the motor improvement of deep brain stimulation

Background: This study aims to investigate the altered spontaneous neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) revealed by amplitudes of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) of resting-state fMRI, and the feasibility of using ALFF as neuroimaging predictors for motor improvement afte...

description Background: This study aims to investigate the altered spontaneous neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) revealed by amplitudes of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) of resting-state fMRI, and the feasibility of using ALFF as neuroimaging predictors for motor improvement after bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS). Methods: Fourty-four patients and 44 healthy controls were included in this study. First, the ALFF of patients with PD was compared with that of controls; then significant clusters were correlated with motor improvement after DBS (unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS-III)) and other clinical variables. Second, regression and classification of the machine learning models were conducted to predict motor improvement after DBS. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the performance of the classification model. Results: Compared with healthy controls, patients with PD showed increased ALFF in the bilateral motor area and decreased ALFF in the bilateral temporal cortex and cerebellum. The Hoehn-Yahr stages correlated with ALFF within the bilateral cerebellum (p = 0.021), and UPDRS-III improvement correlated with ALFF in the left (p < 0.001) and right (p = 0.005) motor areas. The regression model showed a significant correlation between the predicted and observed UPDRS-III changes (R = 0.65, p < 0.001). The ROC analysis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.94 which differentiated moderate and superior DBS responders. Conclusion: The results revealed altered ALFF patterns in patients with PD and their correlations with clinical variables. Both binary and continuous ALFF can potentially serve as predictive biomarkers for DBS response.
