Dynamic regional homogeneity alterations and cognitive impairment in patients with moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background and purpose: Previous studies have found that abnormal local spontaneous brain activity in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was associated with cognitive impairment, and dynamic functional connections can capture the time changes of functional connections during magnetic resonance imaging acquisition. The purpose of this study was to investigate the dynamic characteristics of regional brain connectivity and its relationship with cognitive function in patients with OSA and to explore whether the dynamic changes can be used to distinguish them from healthy controls (HCs). Methods: -test was used to test the difference in the dReHo map between OSA patients and HCs. We explored the relationship between dReHo and clinical and cognitive function in OSA patients using Pearson correlation analysis. A support vector machine was used to classify the OSA patients and HCs based on abnormal dReHo. Result: Compared with HCs, OSA patients exhibited higher dReHo values in the right medial frontal gyrus and significantly lower dReHo values in the right putamen, right superior temporal gyrus, right cingulate gyrus, left insula and left precuneus. The correlation analysis showed that the abnormal dReHo values in multiple brain regions in patients with OSA were significantly correlated with nadir oxygen saturation, the oxygen depletion index, sleep period time, and Montreal cognitive assessment score. The support vector machine classification accuracy based on the dReHo difference in brain regions was 81.60%, precision was 81.01%, sensitivity was 81.01%, specificity was 82.14%, and area under the curve was 0.89. Conclusion: The results of this study suggested that there was abnormal dynamic regional spontaneous brain activity in patients with OSA, which was related to clinical and cognitive evaluation and can be used to distinguish OSA patients from HCs. The dReHo is a potential objective neuroimaging marker for patients with OSA that can further the understanding of the neuropathological mechanism of patients with OSA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
