Fig. 5: Seed-based connectivity changes after spaceflight of the thalamus, right angular gyrus, and bilateral insula.
From: Prolonged microgravity induces reversible and persistent changes on human cerebral connectivity
The longitudinal changes in intrinsic connectivity contrast (ICC) for the thalamus (a), right angular gyrus (b), and bilateral insula (c) were associated with connectivity increases (green) and decreases (magenta) with specific brain regions. The posterior cingulate cortex did not exhibit connectivity changes with other specific brain regions. Slice coordinates are presented in MNI space. Color maps present statistical t-values. AG angular gyrus, CO central operculum, IFG inferior frontal gyrus, M1/S1 pre- and postcentral gyrus, MCC middle cingulate cortex, MFG middle frontal gyrus, ROI region of interest, SFG superior frontal gyrus. SMG supramarginal gyrus. R right, L left. Statistical significance is based on p < 0.005 uncorrected at the voxel level followed by p < 0.05 corrected for family-wise error at the cluster level (n = 11).
