“…NODDI has been used to explore brain microstructural alterations in several physiological and pathological conditions, such as brain development ( Zhao et al, 2021 ), aging ( Merluzzi et al, 2016 ), Parkinsonism ( Mitchell et al, 2019 ), and Wilson disease ( Song et al, 2018 ). Nevertheless, previous DTI and SMT studies have focused solely on WM microstructural changes after SD ( Rocklage et al, 2009 ; Cui et al, 2015 ; Elvsashagen et al, 2015 ; Zhu et al, 2017 ; Voldsbekk et al, 2021 ; Wang et al, 2022 ), and the effect of SD on GM microstructure remains unclear.…”
