A General Factor of Brain White Matter Integrity Predicts Information Processing Speed in Healthy Older People
2010
Journal of Neuroscience
Based on diffusion MRI scans of 132 healthy individuals with a narrow age range around 72 years, the integrity of eight major white matter tracts was quantified using probabilistic neighborhood tractography ...
Principal component analyses (PCAs) were conducted on the correlations between the eight tracts, separately for four tract-averaged integrity parameters: fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, and radial ...
Furthermore, after statistically controlling for the common tract integrity factor in correlations between the processing speed factor and integrity of the eight individual tracts, only left uncinate fasciculus ...

Frontotemporal Connections in Episodic Memory and Aging: A Diffusion MRI Tractography Study
2011
Journal of Neuroscience
Diffusion-weighted MRI tractography was used to reconstruct three candidate fasciculi known to link components of memory networks: the fornix, the parahippocampal cingulum, and the uncinate fasciculus. ...

For the uncinate fasciculus, a significant negative correlation between the error ratio in the Paired-Associate Learning task and FA averaged across hemispheres was found (Fig. 5, Table 3 ). ...
