简要总结

We evaluated pharmacological effects of the galantamine, which is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, onto brain networks in patients with Alzheimer's disease patients. A network analysis utilizing a topological analysis found an influence of galantamine administration onto functional connectivity in comparison with a placebo control condition. However, the sample size (n = 4) was limited, we need to exercise caution to extend the inference to the population.
