Reduced integration and improved segregation of functional brain networks in Alzheimer's disease.
OBJECTIVE Emerging evidence shows that cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are associated with disruptions in brain functional connectivity. Thus, the identification of alterations in AD functional networks has become a topic of increasing interest. However, to what extent AD induces disruption of the balance of local and global information processing in the human brain remains elusi...
متن کاملIntegration vs. Segregation in Functional Brain Networks
We propose a new methodology to evaluate the balance between segregation and integration in functional brain networks by using Singular Value Decomposition techniques. By means of magnetoencephalography, we obtain the brain activity of a control group of nineteen individuals during a memory task. Next, we project the node-to-node correlations into a complex network which is analyzed from the pe...
متن کاملFunctional segregation and integration within fronto-parietal networks
Experimental data on monkeys and functional studies in humans support the existence of a complex fronto-parietal system activating for cognitive and motor tasks, which may be anatomically supported by the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF). Advanced tractography methods have recently allowed the separation of the three branches of the SLF but are not suitable for their functional investigat...
متن کاملModular organization as a basis for the functional integration/segregation in large-scale brain networks
Modular structure is ubiquitous among real-world networks from related proteins to social groups. Here we analyze the modular organization of brain networks at a large-scale (voxel level) extracted from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals. By using a random walk-based method, we unveil the modularity of brain-webs, and show modules with a spatial distribution that matches anato...
