摘要
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood psychiatric disorder that often persists into adulthood. Extracting brain networks from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data can help explore neurocognitive disorders in adult ADHD. However, there is still a lack of effective methods to extract large-scale brain networks to identify disease-related brain network changes. Hence, this study proposed a spatial constrained non-negative matrix factorization (SCNMF) method based on the fMRI real reference signal. First, non-negative matrix factorization analysis was carried out on each subject to select the brain network components of interest. Subsequently, the available spatial prior information was mined by integrating the interested components of all subjects. This prior constraint was then incorporated into the NMF objective function to improve its efficiency. For the sake of verifying the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method, we quantitatively compared the SCNMF method with other classical algorithms and applied it to the dynamic functional connectivity analysis framework. The algorithm successfully extracted ten resting-state brain functional networks from fMRI data of adult ADHD and healthy controls and found large-scale brain network changes in adult ADHD patients, such as enhanced connectivity between executive control network and right frontoparietal network. In addition, we found that older ADHD spent more time in the pattern of relatively weak connectivity. These findings indicate that the method can effectively extract large-scale functional networks and provide new insights into understanding the neurobiological mechanisms of adult ADHD from the perspective of brain networks.
