Fibromyalgia impact in the prefrontal cortex subfields: An assessment with MRI
Women with fibromyalgia showed reduced volume in different subfields of the prefrontal cortex and total gray matter compared to healthy women.
• Various subfields of the prefrontal cortex showed significantly volumetric decreases related to variables such as age and depression.
• The total gray matter shows a significant decrease related to age observed through the analysis of multiple linear regressions.
