Summary: This study investigated the effective connectivity of large-scale brain networks in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) during resting state. The results showed that compared with healthy controls, children with ASD had decreased effective connectivity among some large-scale brain networks. Furthermore, the study found significant correlations between the strength of certain connections and patients' clinical characteristics.

Summary: The study revealed a widespread reduction in cortical mGluR5 network integration in FCD patients, leading to decreased network efficiency and connectivity. Ongoing epileptic activity may alter chemoarchitectural brain organization, resulting in reduced efficiency in distant regions essential for network integration.

Summary: Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is a novel non-invasive brain stimulation technique that has immediate effects on large-scale functional brain networks, potentially aiding in the treatment of conditions such as epilepsy. This stimulation method leads to differential changes in local and global network characteristics, ultimately influencing network reconfiguration and stability. This model provides insights into the mechanism of action of taVNS.

Summary: This study reveals the brain-wide organization and mechanisms of mentalizing processing, showing the detailed connectomic features of the mentalizing network. It demonstrates that mentalizing unfolds across functionally heterogeneous regions with highly structured fiber tracts and unique hierarchical functional architecture, distinguishing it from other brain networks supporting related functions such as autobiographical memory and moral reasoning.

Summary: Bat movement and behavior are not well-studied due to the difficulties in visual identification caused by their high-altitude and nocturnal activity. This study presents a bat classifier called BATScan, which uses radar data to identify and characterize bat movements. The classifier was constructed using data from 10 radar deployments over a 7-year period and achieved high accuracy and precision through ecological validations.

Summary: The brain is organized as a complex network architecture, and modularity is a universal trait that is vital for cognitive segregation and integration. Large-scale brain network modeling combines neuroimaging data with generative rules for brain dynamics. Recent studies have found that chimera states, a type of dynamics, have similarities with cognitive functions and may play a fundamental role in brain functioning.

Summary: Using a widefield cryogenic microscope and parallel resonant spectroscopy, chip-scale automated optical characterization of solid-state quantum emitters is achieved. Standard optical characterization techniques are not efficient or repeatable at scale, but the introduced spectroscopic techniques enable large-scale, automated characterization of color centers. Resonant photoluminescence excitation in a widefield cryogenic microscope is implemented to speed up resonant spectroscopy by two orders of magnitude compared to confocal microscopy. Automated chip-scale characterization of color centers and devices at room temperature is demonstrated, allowing for accelerated identification of useful quantum emitters and advances in scaling up color center platforms for various applications.

Summary: To understand and control complex dynamical systems, their internal states need to be observed through measurement or estimation. However, in large-scale dynamical networks, having enough sensor nodes to make the system fully observable is often difficult. This study introduces a graph-based theory of functional observability to determine the minimal set of required sensors and design the corresponding state observer of minimum order. The proposed functional observer achieves the same estimation quality with fewer resources, making it suitable for large-scale networks.

Summary: RBANS, particularly the Delayed Memory Index, is sensitive to AD pathology and can be used as a predictive tool, especially in clinical drug trials. Lower RBANS Total Scale score or Delayed Memory Index predicted the presence of APOE epsilon 4 allele[s], higher cerebral amyloid burden, and lower hippocampal volumes, with demographic variables not consistently contributing to these models.

Summary: Pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD) is a severe mood dysregulation condition that affects a small percentage of children and teens in the United States. In a study, researchers found altered brain connectivity and abnormal signaling related to neurite outgrowth in PBD patients, suggesting that dysregulated PLXNB1 signaling may contribute to the increased risk of PBD and other mood dysregulation-related disorders.
