Abstract:Center effects significantly limit the generalizability of brain imaging-based biomarker candidates. Although our previously published resting state functional connectivity-based predictive signature for pain sensitivity (the RPN-signature) showed remarkable out-of-center generalizability, it remained unclear which connectivity features are the most generalizable across study centers. Here, we re-trained the RPN-signature on multi-center data and found that it outperforms the single-center model in all three c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
