Stroke data from: Robust dynamic brain coactivation states estimated in individuals

<p><span>A confluence of evidence indicates that brain functional connectivity (FC) is not static but rather dynamic. </span><span>Capturing transient </span><span>network interactions in the individual brain requires a technology that offers sufficient within-subject reliability. Here, we introduce an </span><span>individualized network-based dynamics analysis technique and demonstrate that it is reliable in detecting subject-specific brain states during both resting state and a cognitively challenging language task.</span> <span>Moreover, we evaluated the extent to which brain states showed hemispheric asymmetries and how various phenotypic factors such as handedness and gender might influence network dynamics. </span><span>W</span><span>e discovered a right-lateralized brain state that occurred more frequently in men than in women, and more frequently in right-handed versus left-handed individuals. Lastly, we demonstrated longitudinal brain state changes in 42 patients with subcortical stroke over 6 months. Taken together, this approach could quantify subject-specific dynamic brain states and has potential for use in both basic and clinical neuroscience research.</span></p>
