Acupuncture Induces Reduction in Limbic-Cortical Feedback of a Neuralgia Rat Model: A Dynamic Causal Modeling Study

Figure 4

Results of Bayesian model selection for the EA group. Results of BMS for the EA group at premodeling (a), postmodeling (b), and after 3 months of treatment (c). The first column represented results of family-level inference in which sixteen models were sorted into three families based on the region with pain propagation pathways. The second column showed the Bayes factors to prove the evidence level of posterior probability. The third column displayed results of model-level inference in which the eight models from the winning family were compared to determine the most plausible directionality of interregional connections underlying pain propagation.
