Abnormal cross-network functional connectivity in chronic pain and its association with clinical symptoms
Kasey S. Hemington,Kasey S. Hemington,Qi Wu,Aaron Kucyi,Robert D. Inman,Robert D. Inman,Karen D. Davis +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with chronic pain exhibited less anticorrelated FC between the SN and DMN, and the degree of cross- network abnormality tracked pain and disease-related symptoms, suggesting that cross-network FC is a metric of functional brain abnormality in chronic pain.

Neuropathic pain in ankylosing spondylitis: a psychophysics and brain imaging study.
TL;DR: The present findings indicate that neuropathic pain occurs in ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and abnormal brain gray matter and neural correlates of neuropathicPain are concordant with the clinical picture of AS, which includes sensorimotor and mood deficits as well as neuropathy pain symptoms.

Tumor necrosis factor inhibitor therapy in ankylosing spondylitis: differential effects on pain and fatigue and brain correlates.
TL;DR: TNFi treatment produces changes in brain areas implicated in sensory, motor, affective, and cognitive functions that contribute to suboptimal effects on QoL.
Bidirectional Mendelian randomization study of psychiatric disorders and Parkinson’s disease
Qi Wu,Shulin Liu,Xiu-Rong Huang,Jiabin Liu,Yige Wang,Yaqin Xiang,Qian Xu,Xinxiang Yan,Beisha Tang,Jifeng Guo +9 more
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper applied stringent control steps in instrumental variable selection using the Mendelian randomization residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) method to rule out pleiotropy.
Fatigue in ankylosing spondylitis is associated with the brain networks of sensory salience and attention.
TL;DR: The brain networks underlying fatigue in AS are investigated to investigate the mechanisms underlying fatigue and the development of targeted, effective treatment of this disabling feature of AS.
