Between-groups differences in local FCD maps.
Differences in lFCD maps are observed in pre- and postcentral gyri, the cuneus, putamen and lingual gyrus. MHE and non-HE patients have decreased lFCD in these regions relative to control subjects, although there are no differences between patient groups. lFCD = local functional connectivity density; MHE = minimal hepatic encephalopathy; non-HE = non-hepatic encephalopathy.
