Alterations in intra- and inter-network connectivity associated with cognition impairment in insulinoma patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective: Cognitive dysfunction is common in insulinoma patients, but the underlying neural mechanisms are less well understood. This study aimed to explore the alterations of intra- and inter-network connectivity patterns associated with patients with insulinoma. Methods: Resting-state fMRI were acquired from 13 insulinoma patients and 13 matched healthy controls (HCs). Group Independent component analysis (ICA) was employed to capture the resting-state networks (RSNs), then the intra- and inter-network connectivity patterns, were calculated and compared. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) was used to assess the cognitive function. The relationship between connectivity patterns and MoCA scores was also examined. Results: Insulinoma patients performed significantly worse on MoCA compared to HCs. The intra-network connectivity analysis revealed that patients with insulinoma showed decreased connectivity in the left medial superior frontal gyrus within anterior default mode network (aDMN), and decreased connectivity in right lingual gyrus within the visual network (VN). The intra-network connectivity analysis showed that patients with insulinoma had an increased connectivity between the inferior-posterior default mode network (ipDMN) and right frontoparietal network (rFPN) and decreased connectivity between the ipDMN and auditory network (AUN). There was a significant negative correlation between the ipDMN-rFPN connectivity and MoCA score. Conclusion: This study demonstrated significant abnormalities in the intra- and inter-network connectivity in patients with insulinoma, which may represent the neural mechanisms underlying the cognitive impairment in insulinoma patients.

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.
