Tumor resting-state fMRI connectivity to extralesional brain is associated with cognitive performance in glioma patients by Chuh-Hyoun Na, Hans Clusmann, Martin Wiesmann, Kerstin Jütten, Verena Mainz

“…Discussion and conclusion: Intrinsic functional coupling to the rest of the brain was associated with worse cognitive performance and might relate to pathological tumor-neuron interaction on the macroscale, reflecting the invasive nature of diffusely infiltrating glioma. Deepening our understanding of FC measures at the connectomic level in the context of cancer neuroscience may aid in identifying neurophysiological correlates of cognitive impairment and in prognosticating cognitive outcome in glioma patients.…”
