Resting-state fMRI: comparing default mode network connectivity between normal and low auditory working memory groups

The relationship between resting effective connectivity (EC) among default mode network (DMN) regions and auditory working memory (AWM) performance is still poorly understood. In this work, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) was used to determine the optimum connectivity mo...
