Abstract:
Objective:To explore the dynamic temporal variability of brain functional networks in individuals with internet gaming disorder(IGD)using dynamic functional connectivity density(dFCD).Methods:From January 2019 to December 2021, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were recruited from 55 patients with IGD and demographically matched 50 healthy controls.Data analysis was performed by IBM SPSS 21.0 software. The functional connectivity density(FCD) combined with sliding window analysis was employed to calculate the temporal variability of global functional connectivity.FCD in whole brain was further devided into ipsilateral and cotralateral parts.The temporal variability of dFCD was further quantified utilizing the standard deviations of whole brain, intra-, and inter-hemispheric FCD. Finally, Pearson correlation analysis was performed between dFCD variance in differential brain regions and clinical behaviors.Results:The inter-hemispheric dFCD in the left posterior cingulate cortex(-0.16±0.24) and the left precuneus(-0.08±0.23) in patients with IGD were lower that those in healthy controls(0.002±0.260, 0.12±0.36)( t=-3.502, -4.160, both P<0.05).And the intra-hemispheric dFCD in the left calcarine, the left precuneus, and the left posterior cingulate cortex in patients with IGD were lower that those in healthy controls( t=-3.809, -4.360, -3.561, all P<0.05).Moreover, abnormal global dFCD variability of the calcarine and ipsilateral dFCD variability of the PCC negatively correlated with the severity of IGD( r=-0.380, -0.413, both P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients with IGD show intra-and inter-hemispheric dFCD differences in the visual attention network and default mode network, which may respond to the underlying neurobiological basis for the presence of cognitive dysfunction and impaired concentration.
