Background: The insula is a central brain hub involved in cognition and affected in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The aim of this study was to assess functional connectivity (FC) and betweenness centrality (BC) of insular sub-regions and their relationship with cognitive impairment in PD. Methods: Whole-brain 3D-T1, resting-state functional MRI and a battery of cognitive tests (CAMCOG) were included for 53 PD patients and 15 controls. The insular cortex was segmented into ventral (vAI) and dorsal (dAI) anterior and posterior sub-regions. Connectivity between insular sub-regions and resting-state networks was assessed and related to cognition; BC was used to further explore nodes associated with cognition. Results: Cognitive performance was significantly lower in PD patients compared to controls (p |
