Seeking more ‘trait from birth’ connections:
quick focus on “LEFT EAR total deafness” to see what likely plastic changes occurred: this is a checklist to go down and see _possible_ connections.
“When compared with the right-sided hearing impairment group, the left-sided hearing impairment group showed significantly
higher fALFF values in the
left superior parietal gyrus,
right inferior parietal lobule, and
right superior frontal gyrus, whereas it showed significantly
lower fALFF values in the
left Heschl’s gyrus,
right supramarginal gyrus, and
left superior frontal gyrus.
In the left-sided hearing impairment group,
paired brain regions with enhanced FC were the
left Heschl’s gyrus and right supramarginal gyrus,
left Heschl’s gyrus and left superior parietal gyrus,
left superior parietal gyrus and right inferior parietal lobule,
right inferior parietal lobule and right superior frontal gyrus, and
left and right superior frontal gyri.
In the left-sided hearing impairment group, the FC of the paired brain regions correlated negatively with the duration and pure tone audiometry were in the left Heschl’s gyrus and right supramarginal gyrus. “
