Effects of COMT Val158Met genotypes on the eigenvector centrality of the brain network and working memory performance. (A) A two-sample t test of eigenvector centrality maps revealed significantly (P < 0.05, corrected) higher centrality in the left parahippocampal cortex (peak voxel MNI coordinates: X = −24, Y = −20, Z = −28; T = 2.939; cluster size = 27) in the Val/Val individuals than the Met carriers. (B) For illustrative purposes, the mean eigenvector centrality within the significant cluster is displayed in the bar graph for the two different genotype groups (mean ± SD). (C) Individual eigenvector centrality within the significant cluster is significantly (P = 0.008) positively correlated with the individual 2-back WM correct rate. The P value is shown with age and gender as covariates in the association analysis. PPA, parahippocampal cortex; WM, working memory.
