Figure 3

(A) Schematic representation of the component consisting of 235 edges considered significantly different between groups (p < 0.05, family-wise error corrected). Brain nodes are scaled according to the number of edges in the significant component to which they are connected. Panel B shows the means and standard deviations of the connectivity strength of the 235 significant connections according to group. No significant differences were found between HC and Parkinson’s disease patients without mild cognitive impairment (PD-nonMCI) patients, or between PD-nonMCI and PD-MCI patients using NBS. r: connectivity strength (Pearson’s correlation coefficient). Brain plots were created with Surf Ice (https://www.nitrc.org/projects/surfice/).
