In this study, the group ICA and correlation analysis methods were performed to explore and compare the network coupling in the triple networks, including the salience network (SN), executive control network (ECN) and default mode network (DMN), for Parkinsons disease (PD) patients and normal controls. The results revealed decreased coupling between SN and ECN for PD patients, suggesting that SN may less focus on the processing of external stimuli for PD patients. Furthermore, the results also showed the decreased coupling between SN and DMN, indicating that for PD patients, SN may also less mediate the processing of internal events.
