Background/Objectives: The severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is clinically assessed through a comprehensive evaluation social communication deficits, restricted interests, repetitive behaviors, and the level support required (ranging from 1 to 3) according DSM-5 criteria. Along with its varied clinical manifestations, neuroanatomy ASD characterized by heterogeneous abnormalities. Notably, brain MRI children often reveals an increased number perivascular spaces (PVSs) compared typically developing children. Our recent findings indicate that enlarged PVSs (ePVSs) are more common in younger male patients severe specific ePVS locations significantly associated symptoms. Methods: In this study, we mapped ePVSs across key regions three major cognitive networks-the Default Mode Network (DMN), combined Central Executive/Frontoparietal (CEN/FPN), Salience (SN)-in 36 individuals different symptom severities rehabilitation needs due ASD. We explored how number, size, location these networks related symptoms overall need for support. Results: results suggest DMN, CEN/FPN, SN strongly correlated certain symptoms, including verbal stereotypies, sensory disturbances. found mild association between needed daily living quality life. Conclusions: Dysfunction presence has significant impact on However, assistance may also be influenced other comorbid conditions dysfunctions smaller, overlapping networks.

Analysis and interpretation of studies on cognitive affective dysregulation often draw upon the network paradigm, especially Triple Network Model, which consists default mode (DMN), frontoparietal (FPN), salience (SN). DMN activity is primarily dominant during leisure self-monitoring processes. The FPN peaks task involvement exertion. Meanwhile, SN serves as a dynamic “switch” between FPN, in line with demand. In domains, dysfunctions involving are connected to broad spectrum deficits maladaptive behavioral patterns variety clinical disorders, such depression, insomnia, narcissism, PTSD (in case hyperactivity), chronic pain, anxiety, high degrees neuroticism, schizophrenia, epilepsy, autism, neurodegenerative illnesses, bipolar disorder hypoactivity).

The brain is always intrinsically active, utilizing energy at high rates, while moving between global functional modes. Awake modes are tied to corresponding behavioral states. During goal-directed behavior, the enters an action-mode of function. In action-mode, arousal heightened, attention focused externally, and action plans created, converted movements, continuously updated based on relevant feedback, such as pain.

Decades of neuroscience research has shown that macroscale brain dynamics can be reliably decomposed into a subset large-scale functional networks, but the specific spatial topographies these networks and names used to describe them vary across studies. Such discordance hampered interpretation convergence findings field. To address this problem, we have developed Network Correspondence Toolbox (NCT) permit researchers examine report correspondence between their novel neuroimaging results sixteen widely atlases, consistent with recommended reporting standards by Organization for Human Brain Mapping. The atlases included in toolbox show some topographical such as those labeled default or visual. naming varies particularly spanning frontoparietal association cortices. For reason, quantitative comparison multiple is benchmark findings. We provide several exemplar demonstrations using Connectome Project task fMRI UK Biobank independent component analysis maps illustrate how use NCT own through evaluation against published atlases. provides convenient means computing Dice coefficients spin test permutations determine magnitude statistical significance among user-defined existing atlas labels. also includes functionality incorporate additional future. adoption will make it easier network standardized manner, thus aiding reproducibility facilitating comparisons studies produce interdisciplinary insights.

Functional connectivity (FC) is conventionally defined by measuring the similarity between brain signals from two regions. The technique has become widely adopted in analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data, where it provided cognitive neuroscientists with abundant information on how regions interact to support complex cognition. However, past decade notion "connectivity" expanded both complexity and heterogeneity its application neuroscience, resulting greater difficulty interpretation, replication, cross-study comparisons. In this paper, we begin canonical notions then introduce recent methodological developments that either estimate some alternative form or extend analytical framework, hope bringing better clarity for neuroscience researchers.

Abstract Approaching the 30th anniversary of discovery resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) connectivity, we reflect on impact this neuroimaging breakthrough field child and adolescent psychiatry. The study intrinsic brain architecture that rsfMRI affords across a wide range ages abilities has yielded numerous key insights. For example, now know many neurodevelopmental conditions are associated with more widespread circuit alterations multiple large-scale networks than previously suspected. emergence population neuroscience effective data-sharing initiatives have made large datasets publicly available, providing sufficient power to begin identify brain-based subtypes within heterogeneous clinical conditions. Nevertheless, several methodological theoretical challenges must still be addressed fulfill promises personalized In particular, incomplete understanding physiological mechanisms driving developmental changes in connectivity remains an obstacle further progress. Future directions include cross-species multimodal investigations illuminate such mechanisms. Data collection harmonization efforts span countries diverse cohorts urgently needed. Finally, incorporating naturalistic fMRI paradigms as movie watching should priority for future research efforts.
