Functional connectivity density alterations in schizophrenia [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014 Background: Schizophrenia is characterized by altered resting-state functional connectivity. Most previous studies have focused on changes in connectivity strengths; however, the alterations in connectivity density in schizophrenia remain largely unknown.

Abnormal Functional Connectivity Density in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. [PDF]
Front Aging Neurosci, 2018 Purpose: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a motor neuro-degenerative disorder that also damages extra-motor neural pathways. A significant proportion of existing evidence describe alterations in the strengths of functional connectivity, whereas the

Functional Connectivity Density for Radiation Encephalopathy Prediction in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma. [PDF]
Front Oncol, 2021 The diagnostic efficiency of radiation encephalopathy (RE) remains heterogeneous, and prediction of RE is difficult at the pre-symptomatic stage. We aimed to analyze the whole-brain resting-state functional connectivity density (FCD) of individuals with ...

Altered Functional Connectivity Density in Subtypes of Parkinson's Disease. [PDF]
Front Hum Neurosci, 2017 Parkinson’s disease (PD) can be classified into tremor-dominant and akinetic-rigid subtypes, each of which exhibits a unique clinical course and prognosis. The neural basis for these disparate manifestations is not well-understood, however.

Alternations in Dynamic and Static Functional Connectivity Density in Chronic Smokers. [PDF]
Front Psychiatry, 2022 Previous studies have implicated abnormal functional coordination in brain regions of smokers. Neuroimaging studies demonstrated alternations in brain connectivity by using the resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) method which arbitrarily chooses
