Decreased interhemispheric functional connectivity in autism.
The cortical underconnectivity theory asserts that reduced long-range functional connectivity might contribute to a neural mechanism for autism. We examined resting-state blood oxygen level-dependent interhemispheric correlation in 53 males with high-functioning autism and 39 typically developing males from late childhood through early adulthood. By constructing spatial maps of correlation betw...
متن کاملDecreased Resting-State Interhemispheric Functional Connectivity in Parkinson's Disease
BACKGROUND Abnormalities in white matter integrity and specific functional network alterations have been increasingly reported in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, little is known about the inter-hemispheric interaction in PD. METHODS Fifty-one drug naive patients with PD and 51 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imagi...
متن کاملFunctional Connectivity Imaging Analysis: Interhemispheric Integration in Autism
The human brain connectome is intrinsically organized into small world networks. The network topology of brain can be investigated using anatomical, functional, and effective connectivity. Here we review modern functional connectivity statistics used to examine brain integration. We then assess transcallosal integration in autism during face processing using an interhemispheric partial correlat...
متن کاملReduced interhemispheric functional connectivity of children with autism: evidence from functional near infrared spectroscopy studies
Autism spectrum d isorder is a neuro-developmental d isorder characterized by abnormalities of neural synchronization. In this study, functional near in frared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is used to study the difference in functional connectivity in left and right inferio r frontal cort ices (IFC) and temporal cortices (TC) between autistic and typically developing child ren between 8-11 years of age....
متن کاملSentence comprehension in autism: thinking in pictures with decreased functional connectivity.
Comprehending high-imagery sentences like The number eight when rotated 90 degrees looks like a pair of eyeglasses involves the participation and integration of several cortical regions. The linguistic content must be processed to determine what is to be mentally imaged, and then the mental image must be evaluated and related to the sentence. A theory of cortical underconnectivity in autism pre...
