triple mode network

INTRODUCTION: Aberrant brain functional connectivity network is thought to be related to cognitive impairment in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aims to investigate the triple-network effective connectivity patterns in patients with T2DM within and between the default mode network (DMN), salience network (SN), and executive control network (ECN) and their associations with cognitive declines. METHODS: In total, 92 patients with T2DM and 98 matched healthy controls (HCs) were recruited and underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI)...

Mild cognitive impairment includes two distinct subtypes, namely progressive mild cognitive impairment and stable mild cognitive impairment. While alterations in extensive functional connectivity have been observed in both subtypes, limited attention has been given to directed functional connectivity. A triple network, composed of the central executive network, default mode network, and salience network, is considered to be the core cognitive network. We evaluated the alterations in directed functional connectivity within and between the triple network in progressive and stable mild cognitive impairment groups and investigated its role in predicting disease conversion...

Dynamic interactions between large-scale brain networks are thought to underpin human cognitive processes such as episodic memory formation, but their underlying electrophysiological dynamics are not known. The triple network model, highlighting the salience, default mode, and frontoparietal networks, are fundamental to this process. To unravel the electrophysiological mechanisms underlying these interactions, we utilized intracranial EEG from 177 participants across four memory experiments. Findings revealed directed information flow from the anterior insula node of the salience network to the default mode and frontoparietal networks, regardless of the nature of the tasks - whether they involved externally driven stimuli during encoding or internally governed processes during free recall...

AIM: While conservatism bias refers to the human need for more evidence for decision-making than rational thinking expects, the jumping to conclusions (JTC) bias refers to the need for less evidence among individuals with schizophrenia/delusion compared to healthy people. Although the hippocampus-midbrain-striatal aberrant salience system and the salience, default mode (DMN), and frontoparietal networks ("triple networks") are implicated in delusion/schizophrenia pathophysiology, the associations between conservatism/JTC and these systems/networks are unclear...

BACKGROUND: Stepping Stones Triple P is an adapted intervention for parents of young children with developmental disabilities who display behaviours that challenge, aiming at teaching positive parenting techniques and promoting a positive parent-child relationship. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of level 4 Stepping Stones Triple P in reducing behaviours that challenge in children with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS: A parallel two-arm pragmatic multisite single-blind randomised controlled trial recruited a total of 261 dyads (parent and child)...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to demonstrate the correlations between the altered functional connectivity patterns in the triple-network model and cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral small vascular disease (CSVD). METHODS: Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were obtained from 22 patients with CSVD and 20 healthy controls. The resting-state data were analyzed using independent component analysis and functional network connectivity (FNC) analysis to explore the functional alterations in the intrinsic triple-network model including the salience network (SN), default mode network (DMN), and central executive network (CEN), and their correlations with the cognitive deficits and clinical observations in the patients with CSVD...

This study evaluated the potential to reduce the scan duration in dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT when using a second-generation multiple-pinhole (MPH) collimator designed for brain SPECT with improved count sensitivity and improved spatial resolution compared with parallel-hole and fanbeam collimators. Methods: The retrospective study included 640 consecutive clinical DAT SPECT studies that had been acquired in list mode with a triple-head SPECT system with MPH collimators and a 30-min net scan duration after injection of 181 ± 10 MBq of [123 I]FP-CIT...

While functional brain imaging studies in humans suggest that chronic cocaine use alters functional connectivity within and between key large-scale brain networks, including the default mode network (DMN), the salience network (SN), and the central executive network (CEN), cross-sectional studies in humans are challenging to obtain brain functional connectivity prior to cocaine use. Such information is critical to reveal the relationship between individual's brain functional connectivity and the subsequent development of cocaine dependence and brain changes during abstinence...

The brain's default mode network (DMN) and the executive control network (ECN) switch engagement are influenced by the ventral attention network (VAN). Alterations in resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) within this so-called triple network have been demonstrated in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) or anxiety disorders (ADs). This study investigated alterations in the RSFC in patients with comorbid MDD and ADs to better understand the pathophysiology of this prevalent group of patients...

INTRODUCTION: Neuroimaging studies suggest that the human brain consists of intrinsically organized, large-scale neural networks. Among these networks, the interplay among default-mode, salience, and central-executive networks has been widely employed to understand the functional interaction patterns in health and disease. This triple network model suggests that salience network causally controls over default-mode and central-executive networks in healthy individuals. This interaction is often referred to as salience network's dynamic regulating mechanism...

BACKGROUND: Environmental exposures play a crucial role in shaping children's behavioral development. However, the mechanisms by which these exposures interact with brain functional connectivity and influence behavior remain unexplored. METHODS: We investigated the comprehensive environment-brain-behavior triple interactions through rigorous association, prediction, and mediation analyses, while adjusting for multiple confounders. Particularly, we examined the predictive power of brain functional network connectivity (FNC) and 41 environmental exposures for 23 behaviors related to cognitive ability and mental health in 7655 children selected from the ABCD study at both baseline and follow-up time...

Successful recovery from stress is integral for adaptive responding to the environment. At a cellular level, this involves (slow genomic) actions of cortisol, which alter or reverse rapid effects of noradrenaline and cortisol associated with acute stress. At the network scale, stress recovery is less well understood but assumed to involve changes within salience-, executive control-, and default mode networks. To date, few studies have investigated this phase and directly tested these assumptions. Here we present results from a double-blind, placebo-controlled, between-groups paradigm (N =165 healthy males) administering 10 mg oral yohimbine and/or 10 mg oral hydrocortisone two hours prior to resting state scanning...

BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) are characterized by abnormal functional connectivity (FC) of default-mode network (DMN), salience network (SN), and central executive network (CEN). Static FC (sFC) and dynamic FC (dFC) combined with triple network model can better study the dynamic and static changes of brain networks, and improve its potential diagnostic value in the diagnosis of AD spectrum disorders. METHODS: Differences in sFC values and dFC variability patterns among the three brain networks of the three groups (53 AD patients, 40 aMCI patients, and 40 NCs) were computed by ANOVA using Gaussian Random Field theory (GRF) correction...

BACKGROUND: Early preoperative evaluation of cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is critical for further surgical treatment. However, insufficient accuracy in predicting LNM status for PTC based on ultrasound images is a problem that needs to be urgently resolved. This study aimed to clarify the role of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in predicting LNM for PTC based on multimodality ultrasound. METHODS: In this study, the data of 308 patients who were clinically diagnosed with PTC and had confirmed LNM status via postoperative pathology at Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, from August 2018 to April 2022 were incorporated into CNN algorithm development and evaluation...

BACKGROUND: Schizophrenia research reveals sex differences in incidence, symptoms, genetic risk factors, and brain function. However, a knowledge gap remains regarding sex-specific schizophrenia alterations in brain function. Schizophrenia is considered a dysconnectivity syndrome, but the dynamic integration and segregation of brain networks are poorly understood. Recent advances in resting-state fMRI allow us to study spatial dynamics, the phenomenon of brain networks spatially evolving over time...

BACKGROUND: Intolerance to psychological distress is associated with various forms of psychopathology ranging from addiction to mood disturbance. The capacity to withstand aversive affective states is often explained by individual differences in cardiovagal tone as well as resting state connectivity of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), a region involved in the regulation of emotions and cardio-autonomic tone. However, it is unclear how functional connectivity of vmPFC with other brain regions involved in behavioral response to stress compare as a function of tolerance to psychological distress...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Over the last decade, evidence suggests that a combination of behavioral and neuroimaging findings can help illuminate changes in functional dysconnectivity in schizophrenia. We review the recent connectivity literature considering several vital models, considering connectivity findings, and relationships with clinical symptoms. We reviewed resting state fMRI studies from 2017 to 2023. We summarized the role of two sets of brain networks (cerebello-thalamo-cortical (CTCC) and the triple network set) across three hypothesized models of schizophrenia etiology (neurodevelopmental, vulnerability-stress, and neurotransmitter hypotheses)...

AIM: The triple network model of psychopathology posits that altered connectivity between the Salience (SN), Central Executive (CEN), and Default Mode Networks (DMN) may underlie neurodevelopmental conditions. However, this has yet to be tested in a transdiagnostic sample of young people. METHOD: We investigated this in 175 children (60 girls) that represent a heterogeneous population who are experiencing neurodevelopmental difficulties in cognition and behavior, and 60 comparison children (33 girls)...

Tobacco-related deaths exceed those resulting from homicides, suicides, motor vehicle accidence, alcohol consumption, illicit substance use, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), combined. Amongst U.S. veterans, this trend is particularly concerning given that those suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-about 11% of those receiving care from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)-have triple the risk of developing tobacco use disorder (TUD). The most efficacious strategies being used at the VA for smoking cessation only result in a 23% abstinence rate, and veterans with PTSD only achieve a 4...

There is a growing body of research showing that cerebral pathophysiological processes triggered by pediatric mild traumatic brain injury (pmTBI) may extend beyond the usual clinical recovery timeline. It is paramount to further unravel these processes, because the possible long-term cognitive effects resulting from ongoing secondary injury in the developing brain are not known. In the current fMRI study, neural processes related to cognitive control were studied in 181 patients with pmTBI at sub-acute (SA; ~1 week) and early chronic (EC; ~4 months) stages post-injury...
