Scans were acquired on a 3.0 Tesla Philips Achieva whole-body scanner (Philips Medical Systems, Best, The Netherlands) equipped with a transmit-receive body coil and a commercial eight-element sensitivity encoding (SENSE) head coil array. For each participant, a volumetric 3D T1-weighted fast field echo sequence was applied twice to obtain two scans each with a duration of 468 s and a spatial resolution of 0.94 × 0.94 × 1.0 mm3 (acquisition matrix: 256 × 256 pixels, 160 slices). Further imaging parameters were field of view = 240 × 240 mm2, echo time = 3.7 ms, repetition time = 8.06 ms, flip angle = 8° and sensitivity encoding factor = 2.1. The two scans were then coregistered and averaged to increase both the signal-to-noise as well as the contrast-to-noise ratio.

MRI data were acquired for eligible UPLOAD2 participants at the University of Florida using a 3.0 Tesla Philips Achieva whole body scanner with a 32-channel head coil and at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, using an eight-channel head coil. The head was secured via cushions positioned inside the head coil to minimize movement. T1-weighted (T1w) images were acquired using a high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) MP-RAGE sequence (repetition time = 7.0 ms, echo time = 3.2 ms/8°, 1 mm3 (link)
isotropic voxels) and used for analysis. Every acquired T1w image was preprocessed using FreeSurfer 7.1.0 (http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/), using the ‘recon-all’ function with default parameters for the general cortical reconstruction process. All calculated areas and their respective parameters were then matched to Destrieux atlas55 (link)
(Freesurfer’s aparc.2009s) for visualization and further analysis.

WMH volumes, findings on T2- weighted or FLAIR images related to cerebral ischemia, were measured using the Lesion Segmentation Toolbox.23 (link) These analyses, as previously described,20 (link),24 (link) were implemented through the VBM8 toolbox in SPM8 using the threshold of 0.3. Per protocol and based on prior preliminary analyses across earlier datasets, WMH severity was determined as being “high” or “low” using a cerebral WMH volume of 3.86ml. This was used to stratify randomization into study phase 1.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
