Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is associated with changes in functional connectivity.
To investigate the patterns of modular changes of the functional connectivity in the progression of MHE, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging was acquired in 24 MHE patients, 31 cirrhotic patients without minimal hepatic encephalopathy (non-HE), and 38 healthy controls.
Newman’s metric, the modularity Q value, was maximized and compared in three groups.
Topological roles with the progression of MHE were illustrated by intra- and intermodular connectivity changes.
Results showed that the Q value of MHE patients was significantly lower than that of controls P<0.01 rather than that of non-HE patients P>0.05, which was correlated with neuropsychological test scores rather than the ammonia level and Child-Pugh score.
Less intrasubcortical connections and more isolated subcortical modules were found with the progression of MHE.
The non-HE patients had the same numbers of connect nodes as controls and had more hubs compared with MHE patients and healthy controls.
Our findings supported that both intra- and intermodular connectivity, especially those related to subcortical regions, were continuously impaired in cirrhotic patients.
The adjustments of hubs and connector nodes in non-HE patients could be a compensation for the decreased modularity in their functional connectivity networks.
