Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Sex differences modulate catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) genotype effect at a synaptic dopamine level, which influences brain function as well as cognitive performance. In this study, we investigated how COMT Val158 Met polymorphism and sex affect intrinsic functional connectivity and memory. METHODS: Intrinsic functional networks were extracted using independent component analysis of...
