RESUMEN

BACKGROUND The thalamocortical tract (TCT) links nerve fibers between the thalamus and cerebral cortex, relaying motor/sensory information. The default mode network (DMN) comprises bilateral, symmetrical, isolated cortical regions of the lateral and medial parietal and temporal brain cortex. The Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) is a standardized neurobehavioral assessment of disorders of consciousness (DOC). In the present study, 31 patients with hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HI-BI) were compared for changes in the TCT and DMN with consciousness levels assessed using the CRS-R. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 31 consecutive patients with HI-BI (17 DOC,14 non-DOC) and 17 age- and sex-matched normal control subjects were recruited. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to diagnose HI-BI, and the CRS-R was used to evaluate consciousness levels at the time of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). The fractional anisotropy (FA) values and tract volumes (TV) of the TCT and DMN were compared. RESULTS In patients with DOC, the FA values and TV of both the TCT and DMN were significantly lower compared to those of patients without DOC and the control subjects (p<0.05). When comparing the non-DOC and control groups, the TV of the TCT and DMN were significantly lower in the non-DOC group (p<0.05). Moreover, the CRS-R score had strong positive correlations with the TV of the TCT (r=0.501, p<0.05), FA of the DMN (r=0.532, p<0.05), and TV of the DMN (r=0.501, p<0.05) in the DOC group. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that both the TCT and DMN exhibit strong correlations with consciousness levels in DOC patients with HI-BI.
