Functional Adaptation of Brain Network Topology in Individuals with Chronic Ankle Instability: A Graph-Theoretical Study
CAI individuals demonstrated diminished regional processing capability within the SMN and a potential compensatory increase in nodal efficiency within the DMN, which are critical to maintain safe balance in this cohort. These alterations in supraspinal networks could be an effective target for rehabilitation and management in CAI.
