Among 115 Dutch participants, for example, 33 of trans women and 22 of trans men reported experiencing changes in their sexual attractions. These results support the use of constrained spherical deconvolution, in conjunction with DTI metrics, to better assess disease progression and treatment post-TBI. Several studies suggest that changes in sexual orientation among trans people are quite common. Additionally, analysis of AFD with connectivity-based fixel enhancement was the only method that identified damage within the corticospinal tract of rats given an FPI. for the paramagnetic liquid in the container to respond to changes in the. However, the latter DTI metrics identified fewer voxels affected by TBI. (Insets) Representative images of objects levitating in the MagLev device in. We found that rats given an FPI had significantly reduced AFD, tract density, average pathlength, and mean curvature when compared to sham-injured rats and significant changes in DTI metrics, including reduced FA and increased MD, RD, and AD. TWI and DTI metrics were assessed using voxel-wise nonparametric permutation testing. AFD was calculated as described previously and statistical testing was performed using connectivity-based fixel enhancement. The number of women exclusively having sex with men also dropped between those years. Rats received either an FPI (n = 11) or sham injury (n = 9) and after a recovery period of 12 weeks underwent MRI. In 2019, 65 of women reported only being attracted to men, a notable decrease from 77 in 2011. As such, this study administered the lateral fluid percussion injury (FPI) model of TBI, assessed for changes in AFD and TWI metrics, and compared these results to the DTI metrics, fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), radial diffusivity (RD), and axial diffusivity (AD). In rigid-body motion, all particles are in combined translation and rotation, and there is no relative motion between particles. Consequently, constrained spherical deconvolution-based measures, such as apparent fiber density (AFD) and track-weighted imaging (TWI) metrics (including tract density imaging, average pathlength mapping, and mean curvature), may be more sensitive than DTI metrics to white matter injury post-TBI. In contrast, constrained spherical deconvolution estimates a fiber orientation distribution directly from high angular resolution diffusion-weighted images. However, given that the DTI model only fits a single fiber orientation, results can become confounded in regions of "crossing" white matter fibers. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been assessed with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), a commonly used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) marker for white matter integrity.
