Loss of consciousness reduces the stability of brain hubs and the heterogeneity of brain dynamics
López-González et al study the fMRI brain dynamics and their underlying mechanism from patients that suffered brain injuries leading to a disorder of consciousness as well as from healthy subjects undergoing propofol-induced sedation. They show that pathological and pharmacological low-level states...

Résumé: | López-González et al study the fMRI brain dynamics and their underlying mechanism from patients that suffered brain injuries leading to a disorder of consciousness as well as from healthy subjects undergoing propofol-induced sedation. They show that pathological and pharmacological low-level states of consciousness display disrupted synchronization patterns, higher constraint to the anatomy and a loss of heterogeneity and stability in the structural hubs compared to conscious states. |
