Dynamic Dysregulation of the Triple Network of the Brain in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and Its Relationship With Cognitive Performance
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A triple network model consisting of a default network, a salience network, and a central executive network has recently been used to understand connectivity patterns in cognitively normal versus dysfunctional brains. This study aimed to explore changes in the dynamic connectivity of triplet network in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and its relationship to cognitive performance. In this work, we acquired resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from 30 mTBI patients and 30 healthy controls (HCs). Independent component analysis, sliding time window correlation, and k-means clustering were applied to resting-state fMRI data. Further, we analyzed the relationship between changes in dynamic functional connectivity (FC) parameters and clinical variables in mTBI patients. The results showed that the dynamic functional connectivity of the brain triple network was clustered into five states. Compared with HC, mTBI patients spent longer in state 1, which is characterized by weakened dorsal default mode network (DMN) and anterior salience network (SN) connectivity, and state 3, which is characterized by a positive correlation between DMN and SN internal connectivity. Mild TBI patients had fewer metastases in different states than HC patients. In addition, the mean residence time in state 1 correlated with Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores in mTBI patients; the number of transitions between states correlated with Glasgow Coma Score in mTBI patients. Taken together, our findings suggest that the dynamic properties of FC in the triple network of mTBI patients are abnormal, and provide a new perspective on the pathophysiological mechanism of cognitive impairment from the perspective of dynamic FC.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
