Fig. 5: Effective connectivity (left and right hemispheres).
From: Enhanced top-down sensorimotor processing in somatic anxiety
a, b Group mean effective connectivity in sensory and motor networks. Arrow colors code nature of connections red, excitatory; blue, inhibitory. c–f Connections showing significant association with FSA c, d and FA e, f scores in sensory and motor networks. Arrow colors code direction of connectivity changes relative to the group mean: red, increased; blue, decreased. For all subfigures, line thickness is kept constant and does not code for the effect size. For the exact values of the estimated connectivity parameters see Appendix A. Nodes are placed in different planes to denote relative position of different nodes in cortical hierarchy. SMA: supplementary motor area, MC: primary motor cortex, FP1: lateral frontal pole, V1: primary visual cortex, A1: primary auditory cortex, SSC: primary somatosensory cortex, AI: anterior insula, PI: posterior insula.
