How different mental states impact on resting state
functional fluctuation is a big concern for clinical
application of resting state fMRI. In this study, we
induced restful mental state using a mindful breathing
task and stressful mental state using two stressful
tasks, the mathematic mental loading task and speech
preparation task. Our results revealed significant
changes in resting-state low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF)
post versus pre each of these tasks. The changes were
not contributed to test-retest reliability, which
warrants careful interpretation of resting state fMRI
results.
