Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a potent vasodilator, its effect
on brain cerebral blood flow and blood oxygenation level
dependent (BOLD) signal changes has been well-studied.
However, the influence on resting-state fMRI data is
still largely unknown. In this study, we presented the
results of both connectivity and amplitude changes of
default mode network (DMN) under hypercapnia (mixed 5%
CO2, 21% O2, and 74% N2) versus normocapnia condition at
rest in healthy brains. We demonstrated that although
the intrinsic correlation of the DMN at rest during CO2
remains, there is significantly reduced amplitude
(measured with fractional low frequency fluctuations or
fALFF) within DMN connectivity under hypercapnia.
