Few studies have analyzed effect of the  sleep  deprivation  and  partial  sleep  restriction  on  rest-state  brain  functional  network.  In  this  study,  we investigated the changes of rest-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in topological architectures of brain functional networks in sleep deprivation among 36 samples in sleep deprivation and 40 normal sleep controls. Our analysis revealed that the brain functional network of the clustering coefficient, characteristic path length  and local  efficiency  are  significantly  increased  but  the  global  efficiency  decreased  significantly  in  sleep  deprivation. Additionally,  significant  alterations  in  nodal  efficiency  were  also  found  in  sleep  deprivation,  involving  anterior cingulate, inferior parietal, supramarginal gyrus, caudate nucleus, thalamus are significant decreased, and themiddle temporal gyrus are significant increased.Our results suggested that the groups of sleep deprivation were associated with disruptions in the topological structure of brain functional networks. }, issn = {3080-180X}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jics/22437.html} }
