Brain Functional Network in Chronic Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis and Occlusion: Changes and Compensation by Shihao He, Ziqi Liu, Zongsheng Xu, Ran Duan, Li Yuan, Chu Xiao, Zhe Yi, Rong Wang

“…In this prospective study, 27 patients with CAO, 29 patients with CAS, and 15 healthy controls matched for age, sex, education, handedness, and risk factors underwent neuropsychological testing and resting-state functional magnetic resonance (rs-fMRI) imaging simultaneously; graph theoretical analysis of brain networks was performed to determine the relationship between changes in brain network connectivity and the progression from internal CAS to CAO. The global properties of the brain network assortativity (p=0.002), hierarchy (p=0.002), network efficiency (p=0.011), and small-worldness (p=0.009) were significantly more abnormal in the CAS group than in the control and CAO groups. …”
