Abstract
The article focuses on a study related to functional connectivity (FC) in schizophrenia. During different task and rest condition, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used in the study to measure FC in schizophrenia patients and healthy controls to develop voxel-based global FC index. It also says that the result of fMRI suggests that FC in patients is dependent on the state of cortical activity.
