OSA-related alterations in FC.

Notes: A disconnected functional subnetwork with 14 nodes and 17 connections in the OSA group using a NBS approach (threshold, T=2.368, P<0.01). The OSA group exhibited abnormal long-distance and short-distance functional connections between/within DMN, SN, and CEN. The blue lines represent decreased rs-FC, and the red lines represent increased rs-FC in patients with OSA compared to GSs.

Abbreviations: OSA, obstructive sleep apnea; FC, functional connectivity; NBS, network-based statistics; DMN, default-mode network; SN, salience network; CEN, central executive network; rs-FC, resting state functional connectivity; GSs, good sleepers; ORBmid, middle frontal gyrus, orbital part; INS, insula; HES, heschl gyrus; IFGoperc, inferior frontal gyrus, opercular part; IPL, inferior parietal, but supramarginal and angular gyri; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex; CRBL-VIII, cerebellar lobule VIII; ANG, angular gyrus; CRBLCrus-I, cerebellum crus I.
