Keywords: Functional Connectivity, fMRI (resting state), Functional connectivity;Postpartum women
Motivation: Resting-state functional connectivity can elucidate the brain intrinsic functional connectivity patterns of postpartum women, providing new evidence for functional plasticity in postpartum women.
Goal(s): Our goal is to explore functional connectivity patterns of postpartum women.
Approach: Postpartum women were imaged using rs-fMRI and compared with nonmothers by functional connectivity analysis.
Results: Brain functional remodeling does occur in the postpartum women, as evidenced by changes in intrinsic functional connectivity patterns.
Impact: We used rs-FC to demonstrate that brain functional placity in postpartum women during raising infants, providing new ideas and directions for studying the neural mechanisms of maternal behavior.
