Table 2. rfMRI items examined with our in-house pipeline.

Categories Items
Head motions Displacements of each volume in Superior, Left, and Posterior directions.
Rotations of each volume in degree (roll, pitch, yaw).
CNR/SNR CNR: the amplitude (I_maxI_min) image divided by the mean standard deviation of non-body background image. For each voxel, I_max and I_min are the 95% and the 5% percentiles of its intensity histogram across time, respectively.
Histogram of CNR.
Temporal SNR or tSNR, similar to Signal-to-Fluctuation Noise Ratio22 in Table 1.
Registration highres2standard: the high-resolution sMRI image registered to the MNI152 template space, with the WM/GM edge of the template shown in red.
func2standard: the rfMRI images registered onto the 3*3*3 mm3 MNI152 template.
func2highres: the rfMRI images registered onto the 1*1*1 mm3 T1 sMRI image.
Segmentation, with GM, WM, and CSF colored and overlaid on the T1 image.
Other Metrics Regional homogeneity23. A measure to evaluate local signal homogeneity.
Amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation or ALFF24. Measures the energy of low-frequency fluctuations in rfMRI data.
Fractional ALFF26: Normalized ALFF.
