Investigation of Altered Spontaneous Brain Activity Patterns In Herpes Zoster Keratitis Using The Percent Amplitude of Fluctuation Method: A Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study
Abstract:Purpose: The purpose of this study was to use the percent amplitude of fluctuation (PerAF) to study the changes in brain activity and nerve function of herpes zoster keratitis (HZK) patients.Methods: We recruited 20 HZK patients and 20 healthy controls (HCs). Each of these groups included ten males and ten females and were matched in weight and age. All participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). The percent amplitude of fluctuation (PerAF) method was used for analysis… Show more
