The two disrupted subnetworks in the multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) groups as identified through network-based statistics. Significantly different connections between (A) three groups (MS, NMOSD, healthy controls [HC]), (B) MS and HC, (C) NMOSD and HC, and (D) MS and NMOSD were displayed; each edge was disrupted in MS or NMOSD compared with HC and there were no edges with increased edge weights in NMOSD compared with MS. The left column displays the lateral view of the left hemisphere, the middle column displays the transverse views of both hemispheres, and the right column displays the lateral view of the right hemisphere. The blue and red circles are the brain regions of subnetworks 1 and 2, respectively. The orange lines are the edges that connect each region.
