Results of voxel-wise, between-group contrasts of z-transformed functional connectivity values (pain versus no-pain) while accounting for the effects of total gray matter volume. To control for multiple comparisons and spurious findings, we utilized the following: Cluster size > 5 voxels. p-value < 0.001.
| Pain | Region | Cluster size (# voxels) | Maximum Intensity Voxel coordinates | t-value | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pain> No Pain | ||||||
| L Insula | 13 | −45 | −9 | 15 | 4.4295 | |
| L Superior Temporal Gyrus | 5 | −39 | 12 | −36 | 3.8694 | |
| L Cerebellum | 5 | −33 | −69 | −48 | 3.7381 | |
| No Pain> Pain | ||||||
| L Middle Frontal Gyrus | 7 | −42 | 27 | 45 | 3.9182 | |
