Progesterone-modulated functional connectivity in bilateral sensorimotor cortex and hippocampus. The whole brain Eigenvector Centrality Mapping (EC) analysis reveals a significant correlation of progesterone with bilateral sensorimotor cortex (p < 0.001 unc.; left panel). In the seed based analysis (right panel), these progesterone-modulated intrinsic connectivity-changes in right and left sensorimotor cortex were found to connect with the left hippocampus (signal change depicted in yellow) at a threshold of p < 0.001 (unc.); for p < 0.005 (unc.) a bilateral effect with both hippocampi could be demonstrated (signal change depicted in red).
