Table 1.

A list of brain regions that show a significant difference in strength between CAE and controls

Regions with significant differences in weighted connectivity (Bonferroni corrected P-values)
Region name Left Right
(A) CAE increase
 Frontal Anterior cingulate (caudal) 0.0003* 0.0003*
Anterior cingulate (rostral) 0.015* >0.5
Middle frontal gyrus 0.010* 0.392
Supramarginal 0.076 0.004*
Lateral orbito-frontal 0.109 0.004*
Precentral 0.006 0.212
 Insula 0.397 0.00005*
 Temporal Superior temporal 0.018* 0.063
Entorhinal 0.005* >0.5
Fusiform >0.5 0.00007*
(B) CAE decreases
 Posterior Lateral occipital 0.016* 0.058
Inferior parietal 0.031* 0.075
Lingual 0.033* >0.5

All increases were in fronto-temporal regions, all decreases in parieto-occipital regions. Nodes are considered significant if the difference passed a two-tailed P < 0.05 threshold. P-values were Bonferroni corrected for the number of nodes; values passing significance at this threshold are marked with asterisk (*). We see the caudal anterior cingulate is maximally affected bilaterally. Lateral and medial occipital decreases pass the significance threshold on the left side only, although a general trend toward occipital decrease is observed, see Figure3A.
