Impaired cerebrovascular reserve (CVR) was supposed to
cause dissociation between functional integrity and
functional connectivity due to regional variation of
CVR. And reversed linearity between functional
connectivity and carbogen-based CVR suggested enhanced
or neuroplasticity in patients of moyamoya disease.
Underestimated or aberrant FC should be considered with
impaired CVR, and studies of FC in diseased states need
evidence of preserved CVR.
