Cortical and subcortical functional connectivity and cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease with cognitive as well as motor impairments. While much is known about the brain networks leading to motor impairments in PD, less is known about the brain networks contributing to cognitive impairments. Here, we leveraged resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) data from the Parkinson's Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) to examine network dysfunction in PD patients with cognitive impairment. We focus on canonical cortical networks linked to cognition, including the salience network (SAL), frontoparietal network (FPN), and default mode network (DMN), as well as a subcortical basal ganglia network (BGN). We used the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) as a continuous index of coarse cognitive function in PD. In 82 PD patients, we found that lower MoCA scores were linked with lower intra-network connectivity of the FPN. We also found that lower MoCA scores were linked with lower inter-network connectivity between the SAL and the BGN, the SAL and the DMN, as well as the FPN and the DMN. These data elucidate the relationship of cortical and subcortical functional connectivity with cognitive impairments in PD.

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.
