Association of maternal IL-6 levels and connectivity in the infant salience network. A, Left insula seed. Higher levels of maternal IL-6 were associated with greater infant connectivity of the left insula with mPFC and left lateral occipital gyrus. B, dACC seed. Higher levels of maternal IL-6 were associated with weaker infant connectivity of the dACC with dmPFC. Images are thresholded at p < 0.05, corrected. Slices are shown in radiological convention. Scatterplots below the images visualize the distribution of the observed data points for average infant connectivity in the significant regions plotted against maternal IL-6 concentrations.
