Modulatory effects of cognitive exertion on regional functional connectivity of the salience network in women with ME/CFS
Modulatory effects of cognitive exertion on regional functional connectivity of the salience network in women with ME/CFS: A pilot study, by Riccardo Manca, Katija Khan, Micaela Mitolo, Matteo De Marco, Lynsey Grieveson, Rosemary Varley, Iain D Wilkinson, Annalena Venneri in Journal … Continue reading
Brain scan shows altered connectivity between different regions of the brain in CFS
Research abstract: Studies using arterial spin labelling (ASL) have shown that individuals with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) have decreased regional cerebral blood flow, which may be associated with changes in functional neural networks. Indeed, recent studies indicate disruptions in functional … Continue reading
Abnormal blood flow & connectivity found in ME/CFS brains
Research abstract: Although altered resting-state functional connectivity is a characteristic of many chronic pain conditions it has not yet been evaluated in patients with chronic fatigue. Our objective was to investigate the association between fatigue and altered resting-state functional connectivity … Continue reading
