Fig. 4: Associations between alcohol intake and brain connections.
From: Prediction of alcohol intake patterns with olfactory and gustatory brain connectivity networks
A Scatter plot showing the relationship between Total Wine Intake and Olfactory Network/Visual-Visual connection. A significant positive correlation is observed (R² = 0.15, P < 0.001), indicating a strong association between wine intake and this specific brain connection. B Scatter plot showing the relationship between Total Alcohol Intake and Gustatory Network/VA-FP/CN connection. The data shows a positive correlation (R² = 0.05, P < 0.001), suggesting a significant positive association between overall alcohol intake and this brain connection. C Scatter plot illustrating the relationship between Total Beer/Wine/Cooler Intake and Gustatory Network/DA-Visual connection. A moderate positive correlation is observed (R² = 0.30, P < 0.001), indicating a positive association between beer/wine/cooler intake and this brain connection. In all panels, the red line represents the best-fit regression line, and the shaded area around the line represents the 95% confidence interval. The actual values of the brain connections are plotted against the predicted values based on the alcohol intake measures.
