Reconfiguration of dynamic brain networks in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: Linking neurovascular coupling and cardiac dysfunction by Xiulin Liang, Qinghua Zhang, Chuanlong Zhang, Jingjing Liu, Pengcheng Sang, Qing Mao, Lei Wang

“…Results: (1) Static network topology properties exhibited significantly decreased local network efficiency among patients with HFpEF. The connectivity strength and information processing efficiency were diminished in the left parahippocampal gyrus, left cingulate gyrus, and right insular gyrus brain regions, and improved in the left thalamus, right fusiform gyrus, and right precuneus regions. (2) Dynamic network topology properties of patients with HFpEF showed decreased variability in critical nodes and brain subregions (e.g., the superior frontal gyrus, left amygdala, and left fusiform gyrus) and compensatory increases in the variability of specific regions (e.g., right insular gyrus, right postcentral gyrus, and right temporal gyrus). (3) In HFpEF, the static and dynamic functional brain network topology properties of the fusiform gyrus, cingulate gyrus, superior temporal gyrus, precuneus, parahippocampal gyrus, insular gyrus, and amygdala regions were significantly correlated with cardiac structural and functional indices, such as LVDd, LVMI, and E/e′ ratio. …”
