Regions showing functional connectivity differences of the left/right thalamus between the LMCI and HC group (P < 0.01, 40 voxels, corrected for multiple comparisons).

Abbreviations: FG = fusiform gyrus; STG = superior temporal gyrus; SMA = supplementary motor area; ITG = inferior temporal gyrus; MTG = middle temporal gyrus; PCu = precuneus; R = right side; L = left side; BA = Brodmann’s area; N/A = not applicable.T: functional connectivity strength of the left/right thalamus and T value was obtained by a one sample t-test; CC: correlation coefficient; “↓+": decrease in positive functional connectivity; “↓-”: decrease in negative functional connectivity; “↑+”: increase in positive connectivity; “↑-”: increase in negative connectivity; “The last two columns show the correlation coefficient and corresponding p value between the strength of functional connectivity and MMSE scores, and the results for a threshold of p are shown in bold.Regions showing functional connectivity differences of the left/right thalamus between the LMCI and HC group (P
