.. _economo_koskinas: .. title:: Cytoarchitectonics Economo-Koskinas cytoarchitectonics ================================================== This page contains descriptions and examples to stratify and visualize surface-based findings according to cyatoarchitectural variation. .. _ve_classes: Economo-Koskinas stratification -------------------------------------- As part of the **ENIGMA TOOLBOX**, we included a digitized parcellation of `von Economo and Koskina’s cytoarchitectonic mapping of the human cerebral cortex `_, from which five different structural types of cerebral cortex can be described: *i*) **agranular** (*purple*; thick with large cells but sparse layers II and IV), *ii*) **frontal** (*blue*; thick but not rich in cellular substance, visible layers II and IV), *iii*) **parietal** (*green*; thick and rich in cells with dense layers II and IV but small and slender pyramidal cells), *iv*) **polar** (*orange*; thin but rich in cells, particularly in granular layers), and *v*) **granular** or koniocortex (*yellow*; thin but rich in smalls cells, even in layer IV, and a rarified layer V). .. image:: ./examples/example_figs/orig_atlas.png :align: center In the following example, we contextualized disease-related cortical atrophy patterns with respect to the well-established von Economo and Koskinas cytoarchitectonic atlas by summarizing cortex-wide effects across each of the five structural types of isocortex. To ease interpretation, stratification of findings based on the von Economo and Koskinas atlas are also visualized in a spider plot. Here, negative values (towards the center) represent greater atrophy in disease cases relative to healthy controls. .. parsed-literal:: **Prerequisites** ↪ Load :ref:`summary statistics ` **or** :ref:`example data ` ↪ :ref:`Z-score data ` (*mega only*) .. tabs:: .. code-tab:: py **Python** | meta >>> from enigmatoolbox.histology import economo_koskinas_spider >>> # Stratify cortical atrophy based on Economo-Koskinas classes >>> class_mean = economo_koskinas_spider(CT_d, axis_range=(-0.4, 0)) .. code-tab:: matlab **Matlab** | meta % Stratify cortical atrophy based on Economo-Koskinas classes class_mean = economo_koskinas_spider(CT_d, 'axis_range', [-0.4 0]) .. tab:: ⤎ ⤏ | ⤎ If you have **meta**-analysis data (*e.g.*, summary statistics) | ⤏ If you have individual site or **mega**-analysis data .. code-tab:: py **Python** | mega >>> from enigmatoolbox.histology import economo_koskinas_spider >>> # Stratify cortical atrophy based on Economo-Koskinas classes >>> class_mean = economo_koskinas_spider(CT_z_mean, axis_range=(-1, 0)) .. code-tab:: matlab **Matlab** | meta % Stratify cortical atrophy based on Economo-Koskinas classes class_mean = economo_koskinas_spider(CT_z_mean{:, :}, 'axis_range', [-1 0]) .. image:: ./examples/example_figs/spider.png :align: center
