Fig. 1: Flow chart of the analysis design.

All participants underwent resting-state fMRI scanning. T1 images, diffusion tensor images (DTI), and blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signals were preprocessed and then used for voxel-based morphometry (VBM), fractional anisotropy (FA), global functional connectivity (gFCD), and sample entropy (SampEn) analyses. The analysis results of the three groups of patients with schizophrenia (SZ) were compared with their healthy controls (HC), respectively.
