Transformer-based structural connectivity networks for ADHD-related connectivity alterations [PDF]
Background Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that affects behavior, attention, and learning. Current diagnoses rely heavily on subjective assessments, underscoring the need for objective imaging-based

Classifyber, a robust streamline-based linear classifier for white matter bundle segmentation
Virtual delineation of white matter bundles in the human brain is of paramount importance for multiple applications, such as pre-surgical planning and connectomics. A substantial body of literature is related to methods that automatically segment bundles

Segregated circuits for phonemic and semantic fluency: A novel patient-tailored disconnection study
Phonemic and semantic fluency are neuropsychological tests widely used to assess patients’ language and executive abilities and are highly sensitive tests in detecting language deficits in glioma patients. However, the networks that are involved in these

Independent contributions of structural and functional connectivity: Evidence from a stroke model
Altered functional connectivity is related to severity of language impairment in poststroke aphasia. However, it is not clear whether this finding specifically reflects loss of functional coherence, or more generally, is related to decreased structural ...

Altered functional and structural connectivity networks in psychogenic non-epileptic seizures. [PDF]
Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) are paroxysmal behaviors that resemble epileptic seizures but lack abnormal electrical activity. Recent studies suggest aberrant functional connectivity involving specific brain regions in PNES.
