Integration and Segregation of Dynamic Functional Connectivity States for Mild Cognitive Impairment Revealed by Graph Theory Indicators

Figure 5

Brain functional connections in eMCI, lMCI, and NC groups have significant differences. (a) The tripartite view with significant differences in functional connections between groups in State 2. OLF.L-SPG.L is the functional connection with significant difference between the NC group and the lMCI group, while the remaining connections are the functional connections with significant differences between the NC group and the eMCI group. (b) The tripartite view with significant differences in functional connections among groups in State 3. IPL.L-MTG.R and DCG.R-SMG.L are the functional connections with significant differences between the eMCI group and the lMCI group, and OLF.L-SPG.L is the functional connection with significant differences between the NC group and the lMCI group. IFGtriang.L-PAL.R is the functional connection with significant differences between the NC group and the eMCI group. (c) A circular chart of the functional connections that differ significantly between groups.
