Fig. 1: Lower amygdala to salience network connectivity in White, compared to Hispanic and Black, trauma survivors.

Several brain regions such as the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC), insula, and cerebellum showed racial/ethnic differences in connectivity to both right (red) and left (blue) amygdala. Hispanic (green) and Black (orange) groups showed greater connectivity than White (purple) participants. Violin plots show distribution of participant connectivity strength (dots in overlaid swarm plot) for each group.
