Research Report on Changes in Functional Connectivity in Post-Stroke Epilepsy (PSE) Patients Based on Source-Level EEG and Graph Theory Research Background Epilepsy has various etiologies, including idiopathic, congenital, head trauma, central nervous system infections, brain tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, and cerebrovascular diseases. Among t...

Changes in Functional Brain Networks in Coronary Heart Disease Patients: Independent Component Analysis and Graph Theory Analysis This article, published in the 229th volume of “Brain Structure and Function” in 2024, explores the changes in functional connectivity (FC) and brain network topology in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). The st...

The Impact of Amplitude and Phase-based MRI Time Series on Functional Connectivity Analysis Introduction Over the past decade, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has emerged as a non-invasive imaging technique that uses blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) contrast to measure brain activity and study brain function (Kwong, 1996). By analyz...

Pediatric brainstem glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children, and surgical resection is the primary treatment method. However, posterior fossa surgery may lead to a complication known as “Pediatric Cerebellar Mutism Syndrome (CMS).” CMS is primarily characterized by temporary mutism, motor disorders, and emotional abnormali...
