Frequency-specific oscillations synchronization in primary angle-closure glaucoma

Background Previous neuroimaging studies demonstrated that patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma were accompanied by abnormal neuronal activity. Purpose To investigate frequency-dependent local oscillations synchronization in primary angle-closure glaucoma using the regional homogeneity method. Material and Methods In total, 37 individuals with primary angle-closure glaucoma (20 men, 17 women) and 37 normal-sighted controls (20 men, 17 women) closely matched in age, sex, and education underwent resting-state MRI scans. We compared the different regional homogeneity values in full band (0.01–0.08 Hz) and two different frequency bands (slow-4: 0.027–0.073 Hz and slow-5: 0.010–0.027 Hz) between two groups. Results Compared to the normal-sighted group, the primary angle-closure glaucoma group showed decreased regional homogeneity values in the left calcarine and left postcentral in full band. The primary angle-closure glaucoma group showed increased regional homogeneity values in the bilateral superior medial frontal lobe in the slow-4 band. The primary angle-closure glaucoma group exhibited decreased regional homogeneity values in the right calcarine in the slow-5 band. Specifically, we found that the regional homogeneity values in the right superior frontal lobe were greater in the slow-4 than in the slow-5 band, whereas regional homogeneity in the left calcarine, right pallidum, left inferior occipital gyrus, left superior occipital gyrus, left postcentral/angular gyrus, left paracentral lobule, left superior parietal gyrus, and right precuneus gyrus were greater in the slow-5 than in the slow-4 band. Conclusion Primary angle-closure glaucoma groups showed abnormal regional homogeneity in visual network (calcarine) and default mode network (superior medial frontal lobe) at two frequency bands. Moreover, the regional homogeneity signals in slow-5 band showed closely related to the severity of individuals with primary angle-closure glaucoma.
