FIGURE 5.
Intragroup comparison of fALFF in patients with MWoA after 4-week treatment. Compared with pretreatment MWoA patients, migraineurs receiving 4-week taVNS treatment showed decreased fALFF in the left thalamus, bilateral PreCG, right PoCG, bilateral SMA, left IPG, bilateral precuneus, and left SFG/mPFC, but no significantly increased brain regions. Blue colors indicate regions with decreased fALFF. Bi, bilateral; R, right; L, left; PoCG, postcentral gyrus; PreCG, precentral gyrus; SMA, supplementary motor areas; SFG, superior frontal gyrus; mPFC, medial prefrontal cortex; IPG, inferior parietal gyrus.
