To explore the mechanisms of cognitive impairment and reorganization in patients with left- and right-sided capsular stroke (CS_L, CS_R), we collected resting-state fMRI data from 62 CS_L, 56 CS_R patients and 57 normal controls (NC). Based on the triple-network model [involving the default mode, central executive and salience networks], static (SFNC) and dynamic functional network connectivities (DFNC) were performed to calculate inter-network functional connectivities and estimate temporal features in each state among the three groups. We found more significant SFNC and DFNC changes in CS_R group, suggesting more extensive cognitive impairment and reorganization in CS_R patients than those with CS_L.
