Correlation between neurocognitive performance and FC in breast cancer patients. (A) The significant partial correlation between the FC of the DLPFC-lobule VII and square-transformed scores of the Raven’s SPM, with an adjustment for years of education. (B) The significant partial correlation between the FC of the DLPFC-vermis XI and scores of the WAIS Digit span, with an adjustment for years of education. To visualize these partial correlations, variables were regressed onto years of education using a linear regression. Values reported in the scatterplot are non-standardized residuals. FC functional connectivity, DLPFC dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, r partial correlation coefficient, SPM standard progressive matrices, WAIS Wechsler adult intelligence scale.
