Altered Functional Connectivity within and between Brain Modules in Absence Epilepsy: A Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Figure 5

The relationship between differential connectivity and epilepsy. (a) The divergence of the superior frontal gyrus (indexed as differential connectivity) showed a significant correlation with the duration of epilepsy; the longer the patient has suffered from epilepsy, the higher the differential connectivity becomes. (b) Age showed a positive trend with the divergence, but the relationship is not significant. (c) Epilepsy onset and (d) seizure frequency showed no significant correlation with the divergence.
