Altered White Matter Microstructure and Cerebral Spontaneous Activity in Early Neurosyphilis Without Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
Disrupted white matter microstructural integrity and spontaneous brain activity were observed in early neurosyphilis using advanced magnetic resonance imaging. Analysis of subtle cerebral structures and functions is potentially helpful for understanding the neural basis of neurosyphilis. Future longitudinal studies with larger sample sizes are warranted.
