“…Here, the brain regions that were primarily associated with the altered connections were mostly in the aforementioned functional systems. Specifically, the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, insula, and precuneus are key regions for socio-emotional processing [73][74][75][76][77][78], and prefrontal cortex is also associated with language processing [79,80] and cognitive control [67,81,82]; the V1 and V4 areas belong to the visual system [83,84]; and PMC is the primary region of the motor system [85]. The high weights of these regions suggest their structures are altered in patients with ASD, which is consistent with ASD symptomatology, including abnormalities in social behavior [86,87], socioemotional processing [61,88], language [89,90], basic motor control [91] and gesture skills [92], visual-motion integration [93], and response to visual stimuli [94][95][96].…”
