Connectomes may contain noise that contributes to false-positive edges, thereby obscuring structure-function relationships and data interpretation. Thresholding procedures can be applied to reduce network density by removing low-signal edges, but there is limited consensus on appropriate selection of thresholds. This article compares existing thresholding methods and introduces a novel alternative \"objective function\" thresholding method. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The performance of thresholding approaches, based on percolation and objective functions, is assessed by (1) computing the normalized mutual information (NMI) of community structure between a known network and a simulated, perturbed networks to which various forms of thresholding have been applied, and by (2) comparing the density and the clustering coefficient (CC) between the baseline and thresholded networks. An application to empirical data is provided. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Our proposed objective function-based threshold exhibits the best performance in terms of resulting in high similarity between the underlying networks and their perturbed, thresholded counterparts, as quantified by NMI and CC analysis on the simulated functional networks. <b><i>Discussion:</i></b> Existing network thresholding methods yield widely different results when graph metrics are subsequently computed. Thresholding based on the objective function maintains a set of edges such that the resulting network shares the community structure and clustering features present in the original network. This outcome provides a proof of principle that objective function thresholding could offer a useful approach to reducing the network density of functional connectivity data.</p>","PeriodicalId":9155,"journal":{"name":"Brain connectivity","volume":"13 7","pages":"383-393"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10517318/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10227277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The initial stages of dementia can be associated with mild symptoms, and symptom progression to a more severe state is heterogeneous across patients. Recent work has demonstrated the potential for functional network mapping to assist in the prediction of symptomatic progression. However, this work has primarily used static functional connectivity (sFC) from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. Recently, dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) has been recognized as a powerful advance in functional connectivity methodology to differentiate brain network dynamics between healthy and diseased populations. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Group independent component analysis was applied to extract 17 components within the cognitive control network (CCN) from 1385 individuals across varying stages of AD symptomology. We estimated dFC among 17 components within the CCN, followed by clustering the dFCs into 3 recurring brain states, and then estimated a hidden Markov model and the occupancy rate for each subject. Then, we investigated the link between CCN dFC features and AD progression. Also, we investigated the link between sFC and AD progression and compared its results with dFC results. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Progression of AD symptoms was associated with increases in connectivity within the middle frontal gyrus. Also, the very mild AD (vmAD) showed less connectivity within the inferior parietal lobule (in both sFC and dFC) and between this region and the rest of CCN (in dFC analysis). Also, we found that within-middle frontal gyrus connectivity increases with AD progression in both sFC and dFC results. Finally, comparing with vmAD, we found that the normal brain spends significantly more time in a state with lower within-middle frontal gyrus connectivity and higher connectivity between the hippocampus and the rest of CCN, highlighting the importance of assessing the dynamics of brain connectivity in this disease. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Our results suggest that AD progress not only alters the CCN connectivity strength but also changes the temporal properties in this brain network.
