Such descriptions can be found in previous studies, but the mechanism is still not clear and often confused with panic attacks in patients with panic disorder (PD). We try to use imaging methods (resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging, rs-fMRI) to study the mechanism of this psychiatric comorbidity in patients with TLE.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Forty right-onset TLE patients were observed, including 28 patients with TLE but without IP and 12 patients with TLEIP along with 30 gender-age matched healthy controls were included. We collected clinical\/physiological\/neuropsychological and rs-fMRI data. Degree centrality (DC) and functional connectivity (FC) were calculated. For the DC and FC values, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to find different areas and <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-tests were used to compare differences between the TLEIP, TLE without IP, and healthy control(HC)groups. The relationship between brain abnormalities and patient characteristics was explored by correlation analyses.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>No significant differences in gender and age were found among the three groups, and no significant differences in education level, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), Hamilton Depressive Scale (HAMD), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), and epilepsy duration (years) between the TLEIP and TLE without IP groups. In addition to fear, other symptoms were observed, including nausea, palpitations, rising epigastric sensation, and dyspnea. There was no correlation between the duration of IP and HAMA. Moreover, all IP durations were &amp;lt;2 min. Compared to the HCs and TLE without IP group, the DC value of the TLEIP group in the left middle temporal gyrus (LMTG) was significantly increased. Compared to the HCs, FC could be found between the LMTG and left inferior temporal gyrus (LITG) in the TLEIP group. In addition, there was FC between the LMTG and cerebellum in the TLEIP group. The difference in the magnitude of FC between the TLEIP vs. HC group was greater than the difference between the TLE vs. HC group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study describes brain abnormalities in patients with TLEIP. These results will help to preliminarily understand the mechanism of ictal panic and abnormal functional connection in patients with TLE, and further explore the neuroimaging mechanism of ictal panic in patients with TLE.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fneur.2022.822253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,28]],"date-time":"2022-06-28T07:44:08Z","timestamp":1656402248000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["The Degree Centrality and Functional Connectivity in Patients With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Presenting as Ictal Panic: A Resting State fMRI Study"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Weiwei","family":"Chang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinping","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liluo","family":"Nie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaomin","family":"Pang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zongxia","family":"Lv","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinou","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"695","DOI":"10.1152\/physrev.00018.2015","article-title":"Fear memory","volume":"96","author":"Izquierdo","year":"2016","journal-title":"Physiol Rev."},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2871","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.1400335111","article-title":"Coming to terms with fear","volume":"111","author":"LeDoux","year":"2014","journal-title":"Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A."},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"349","DOI":"10.1037\/0003-066X.43.5.349","article-title":"The laws of emotion","volume":"43","author":"Frijda","year":"1988","journal-title":"Am Psychol."},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"201","DOI":"10.1016\/S0165-0327(00)00338-4","article-title":"A model of neurovisceral integration in emotion regulation and dysregulation","volume":"61","author":"Thayer","year":"2000","journal-title":"J Affect Disord."},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"83","DOI":"10.1016\/S0165-0173(97)00064-7","article-title":"Emotion in the perspective of an integrated nervous system","volume":"26","author":"Damasio","year":"1998","journal-title":"Brain Res Brain Res Rev."},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1724","DOI":"10.1016\/j.neubiorev.2013.07.001","article-title":"Dell'acqua F, Thiebaut de Schotten M.
