“…Nodal centralities increase was found in the LDH group in regions within the frontoparietal network (IFGoperc.L) [ 38 ]. Frontoparietal network and its functional connectivity with insula were related with emotion regulation [ 46 ]. Increased nodal centralities in this region suggested potential compensation in LDH-induced sciatica patients on pain and emotional regulation functions.…”

Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) induced nerve compression syndromes have been a prevalent problem with complex neural mechanisms. Changes in distributed brain areas are involved in the occurrence and persistence of syndromes. The present study aimed to investigate the changes of brain functional network in LDH patients with chronic sciatica using graph theory analysis. A total of thirty LDH adults presenting L4 and/or L5 root (s) compression syndromes (LDH group) and thirty age-, sex-, BMI- and education-matched healthy control (HC group) were recruited for functional MRI scan. Whole-brain functional network was constructed for each participant using Pearson’s correlation. Global and nodal properties were calculated and compared between two groups, including small-worldness index, clustering coefficient, characteristic path length, degree centrality (DC), betweenness centrality (BC) and nodal efficiency. Both LDH and HC groups showed small-world architecture in the functional network of brain. However, LDH group showed that nodal centralities (DC, BC and nodal efficiency) increased in opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus; and decreased in orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus, lingual cortex and inferior occipital gyrus. The DC and efficiency in the right inferior occipital gyrus were negatively related with the Oswestry Disability Index in LDH group. In conclusion, the LDH-related chronic sciatica syndromes may induce regional brain alterations involving self-referential, emotional responses and pain regulation functions. But the whole-brain small-world architecture was not significantly disturbed. It may provide new insights into LDH patients with radicular symptoms from new perspectives.

“…Three of these studies justified the inclusion of females only by referring to evidence that the strength of the emotional response differs between genders (Chen et al, 2017;Goldin et al, 2008;Vrtička et al, 2011). Regarding cultural background, four studies included only US participants (Hayes et al, 2010;Goldin et al, 2008;Katsumi and Dolcos, 2018;Katsumi et al, 2020), three studies participants from China (Anderson et al, 2021;Chen et al, 2017;Li et al, 2021), five studies samples from the European Germanic cultures (Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland; Dörfel et al, 2014;Vanderhasselt et al, 2013a;Van der Meer et al, 2014;van der Velde et al, 2015;Vrtička et al, 2011), and one study both the US and Chinese samples (Anderson et al, 2021).…”

“…All but two studies used negative and neutral stimuli only. In the studies by Li et al (2021) and Vrtička et al (2011) positive stimuli were used in addition to negative and neutral stimuli. Whereas Vrtička et al (2011) analyzed the responses to negative and positive stimuli separately, Li et al (2021) merged the responses to these valenced stimuli.…”

“…The fronto-parietal network also contributes to emotion regulation (e.g., Li et al 2021) and self-awareness (Uddin et al 2007). While vicarious experience implies the sharing of others' emotions, self-awareness and emotion regulation are necessary processes for empathy to recognize who is the primary source of emotions and to avoid becoming overwhelmed by others' emotions.…”

Trait empathy is an essential personality feature in the intricacy of typical social inclinations of individuals. Empathy is likely supported by multilevel neuronal network functioning, whereas local topological properties determine network integrity. In the present functional MRI study (N=116), we aimed to trace empathic traits to the intrinsic brain network architecture. Empathy was conceived as composed of two dimensions within the concept of pre-reflective, intersubjective understanding. Vicarious experience consists of the tendency to resonate with the feelings of other individuals, whereas intuitive understanding refers to a natural awareness of others’ emotional states. Analyses of graph theoretical measures of centrality showed a relationship between the fronto-parietal network and psychometric measures of vicarious experience, whereas intuitive understanding was associated with sensorimotor and subcortical networks. Salience network regions could constitute hubs for information processing underlying both dimensions. The network properties related to empathy dimensions mainly concerned inter-network information flow. Moreover, interaction effects implied several gender differences in the relationship between functional network organization and trait empathy. These results reveal that distinct intrinsic topological network features explain individual differences in separate dimensions of intersubjective understanding. The findings could help to understand the impact of brain damage or stimulation through alterations of empathy-related network integrity.
