Analysis reveals brain network connectivity predicts response to vagus nerve stimulation in children with epilepsy, suggesting new avenues for treatment.
Our results provide evidence that connectivity of an intrinsic, anterior-dominant network is associated with response to VNS. Responders to VNS are characterized by stronger baseline connectivity of this network and greater resilience of this network to IED-related disruption.
