Concussion Recovery and Skilled Performance in Working-Aged Adults: Sex Differences in the Neural Correlates of Persisting Symptoms After Concussion
… dizziness, cortical volumes and thickness, and resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) were assessed. Females demonstrated slower CMI task performance, reduced cortical volume (left cuneus and superior frontal), thinner cortex (left precuneus), greater RPQ-3 symptom severity, and lower RSFC …

Serum-based biomarkers and magnetic resonance imaging following mild traumatic brain injury in collegiate athletes post return-to-play
… matched on age, sex, and sport. Structural and functional MRI were used for analysis from a subgroup of 26 participants (13 concussed, 13 control). Blood samples were collected to assess the levels of BDNF, S100B, UCH-L1, and Tau. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to analyze …

Functional Imaging the Neonatal Brain with Wearable Diffuse Optical Tomography
… technology is applied to study the features of functional brain connectivity (FC) associated with neonatal sleep states, active sleep and quiet sleep, in both term-born and preterm infants. HD-DOT is also electromechanically combined with electroencephalography (EEG) to concurrently study …

Associations Between Resting State Functional Connectivity and Trajectories of General Psychopathology in Emerging Adolescents
… symptoms and is associated with alterations in resting state functional connectivity (RSFC). Specifically, aberrant connectivity within and between networks responsible for higher-order cognition and attention has been concurrently related to higher levels of p-factor scores in youth. It remains …

Resting-State Functional Connectivity in Collision and Contact Female Athletes Over the Course of a Season
… functioning remain elusive. This study examined resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) of brain networks in a sample of female varsity athletes over the course of a season. Design: 19 female university athletes involved in contact (N = 7) and collision (N = 12) sports underwent functional …

Neurostructural, Neurofunctional, and Neurocognitive Correlates of Cannabis Use in Adolescents with Bipolar Disorder
… This thesis examines the neurostructural, neurofunctional, and neurocognitive correlates of cannabis use in adolescent BD. The over-arching hypothesis was that cannabis use in adolescents with BD would be associated with brain structure, brain function, and neurocognition. Structural and …

Neuroimaging study of prenatal alcohol exposure effects on structural and functional connectivity in children
… (PAE). Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) were used to assess effects of PAE on microstructural integrities of cerebellar and cerebral white matters (WM) and on resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) in gray matter (GM) in children with varying …

An integrated neurovascular investigation of cognitive aging
… are associated with widespread structural and functional brain changes, including changes in resting state functional connectivity (rsFC) and gray and white matter status. In addition, research has demonstrated that individual variance in cognitive aging is associated with cardiovascular …

Intrinsic functional brain connectivity in South African methamphetamine users undergoing inpatient treatment, with or without additional cognitive training
… rates. Neuroimaging suggests MA alters intrinsic resting state functional connectivity (rsFC), and this may contribute to neuropsychological deficits observed in methamphetamine use disorder (MUD). Methods: This nested study analysed data described in Brooks et al. (2016), in which WM training was …

Potential benefits and neural correlates of acupuncture treatment with or without physiotherapy on resting state functional connectivity in ischemic stroke patients with unilateral limb dysfunction
… physical and cognitive impairments, leading to functional dependence even after discharge from hospital. Acupuncture has been recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as an adjunctive treatment for stroke. Physiotherapy serves as the primary rehabilitation approach in South Africa and …
