Cognitive deficit in Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) patient is still a topic to research work upon. The present study was conducted to examine resting state networks (RSNs) in SCH using rsfMRI. SCH patients showed significantly decreased functional connectivity in right fronto-parietal network and anterior default mode network (DMN) as compared with control subjects. Our finding suggests cognitive impairment in resting state networks related to attention and emotional processing in SCH patients
