Abstract
Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) using structural brain MRI has been widely used for the assessment of impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but previous studies in VBM studies on AD remain inconsistent.The PubMed, ISI Web of Science, EMBASE and Medline database were searched for articles between 1995 and June 2014. Manual searches were also conducted, and authors of studies were contacted for additional data. Coordinates were extracted from clusters with significant grey matter difference between AD patients and healthy controls (HC). Meta-analysis was performed using a new improved voxel-based meta-analytic method, Effect Size Signed Differential Mapping (ES-SDM).Thirty data-sets comprising 960 subjects with AD and 1195 HC met inclusion criteria. Grey matter volume (GMV) reduction at 334 coordinates in AD and no GMV increase were found in the current meta-analysis. Significant reductions in GMV were robustly localized in the limbic regions (left parahippocampl gyrus and left posterior cingulate gyrus). In addition, there were GM decreases in right fusiform gyrus and right superior frontal gyrus. The findings remain largely unchanged in the jackknife sensitivity analyses.Our meta-analysis clearly identified GMV atrophy in AD. These findings confirm that the most prominent and replicable structural abnormalities in AD are in the limbic regions and contributes to the understanding of pathophysiology underlying AD.
