Rich Club Nodes and Language Performance

Caption

Two representative participants were drawn from our sample to demonstrate the relationship between number of rich club nodes in each hemisphere and language performance. Despite comparable lesion volumes (A = 5796 voxels, B= 5614 voxels) and number of right-hemisphere rich club nodes, patient B -- who had one isolated left-hemisphere rich club node -- showed remarkably low language performance compared to patient A, who had fourteen nodes participation in the rich club on the left hemisphere.
