Synopsis

This study aimed to explore the changes of functional network connectivity (FNC) in post-stroke dementia (PSD) using a dynamic FNC (dFNC) method. We collected resting-state fMRI data from16 PSD patients, 20 post-stroke non-dementia (PSND) patients and 19 normal controls, and identified 13 functional networks. We found PSD-specific decreases in the dFNC between default mode network and executive control network as well as visual network, which were not observed in static FNC analysis. Moreover, PSD showed a significant decrease in time-variance of global efficiency in whole brain compared with PSND. These changes were associated with the clinical assessments of patients.
