Could Prolonged Usage of GPS Navigation Implemented in Augmented Reality Smart Glasses Affect Hippocampal Functional Connectivity?

Table 1

Functional connectivity of HPC in the baseline TEST session 1 (p-FDR, p < 0.0001). The baseline (before intervention) functional connectivity of the left (L) and right (R) hippocampus in all recruited participants. The ten strongest connections (p-FDR corr. p < 0.0001) are displayed (for complete report of all significant results of FDR corrected at p < 0.05 see Supplementary Table 1).
