[HCP-Users] question about link to behavioural measures docs

2018-05-15 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi HCPers,

I am looking for a link to the documentation for citation for the following
behavioural measures (see below). I had been referring to the following
link, but it looks like that is now expired:
https://wiki.humanconnectome.org/display/PublicData/HCP+Data+Dictionary+Public-+500+Subject+Release

I found also the following, however, this doesn't seem to include
documentation for all of the measures:
https://wiki.humanconnectome.org/display/PublicData/HCP+Data+Dictionary+Public-+Updated+for+the+1200+Subject+Release

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Joelle

Hi HCPers,

I was wondering where I can find an average head motion parameter for each
subject?

[HCP-Users] regression of potentially confounding variables

2017-05-05 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi HCPers,

My goal is to look at variability of SC and FC across subject... I was
wondering what would be recommended as regressors?

In Stephen Smith's Nature Neuroscience 2015 paper looking at FC and
cognition, the following was regressed:
1.
Acquisition reconstruction software version (as an improved MRI
reconstruction method was implemented in the third quarter of acquisition
year 1).
2.
A summary statistic quantifying average subject head motion during the
resting-state fMRI acquisitions (this is the average, across all
timepoints, of the timepoint-to-timepoint head motion, that measure being
the linear distance moved, averaged across the head).
3.
Weight.
4.
Height.
5.
Blood pressure – systolic.
6.
Blood pressure – diastolic.
7.
Hemoglobin A1C measured in blood.
8.
The cube-root of total brain volume (including ventricles), as estimated by
FreeSurfer.
9.
The cube-root of total intracranial volume, as estimated by FreeSurfer.

I'm thinking of going along those lines any thoughts?

Thanks,
Joelle

cool thank you. The MegaTrawl was done on the FC - subject measures only
right? Is there any such analysis coming up for SC - subject measures?

Not necessarily.. Just curious where the variation comes from whether it
can be attributed to particular variables. I'm doing a PCA for variation
across subject connectomes (for ex for SC), see a "common" component, but
there are additional components, some of which for example correlate very
strongly with age. And i want to check if there's other such variables that
may explain some of the additional components.

[HCP-Users] variation across connectomes

2017-04-28 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi HCPers,

I'm looking at variation across SC and FC connectomes of subjects. I was
wondering due to which variables we could potentially expect variability
across subjects to arise?

I've looked into acquisition, fmri reconstruction version, and age as
potential factors of variation. Any other reasonable ones?

One more question about this - a few subjects have: r177 r227 for the fMRI
recon. Does this mean both were done? Which of the two was used for these

Re: [HCP-Users] comparison across acquisitions

2017-04-26 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Thanks for your reply Matt.

By version number, do you mean the "acquisition" - that is, the Q#?

So you expect the fMRI to be more different across acquisitions than the
diffusion?

Do you recall at which acquisition the image reconstruction version change
occurred?

[HCP-Users] comparison across acquisitions

2017-04-26 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi HCPers,

I'm working with structural and functional connectomes from the S900 HCP.
I'm wondering how the different acquisitions (ie Q1 Q2 etc) and releases
would affect comparison across all SCs for example. Was data collected at
different sites for example? - which may affect comparison across
acquisitions.

See below info pasted from behaviour spreadsheet. Do I understand correctly
the "Release" column is when subjects were first released. but if i am
getting all data from the S900, then I shouldn't care about this first
release?

Thanks,
Joelle

Re: [HCP-Users] global signal regression on HCP ICA FIX denoised BOLD?

2017-01-05 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Thanks Stephen. Was there GSR done on the HCP data at any point for the
non-denoised version?

If I wanted to do GSR myself on the HCP data, are there any recommendations
that the HCP group has? Or global signal regressors that have been already
processed? Or is this something that is at the discretion of each
researcher afterwards?

Thank you all! Michael, why would you expect the two diffusion scans using
the different phase encoding directions to be different? Or do you mean
more as in that there is not enough time between 'test' and 'retest'?

[HCP-Users] Test-retest reliability / Intra vs inter subject variability of HCP data

2016-01-28 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi HCPers.

I'm curious about the test-retest reliability and the inter subject versus
intra subject variability of the HCP resting functional and diffusion data,
particularly whether anyone has looked at this in SC and FC connectomes?

To check this out in the rsFC data is simple, using the two scans (pre and
post), or alternatively splitting the time series in half to look at
reproducibility. But what about SC derived from diffusion data, since
diffusion was measured only once the intra subject variability/ test
retest. Does anyone know of a systematic check of variability in the SC
data?

Thanks,
Joelle

Re: [HCP-Users] ROI parcellation

2015-12-17 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Michael and all,

My goal is to use the aparc+aseg (in MNI from the standard Structural
package 100307/MNINonLinear/aparc+aseg.nii.gz)as a parcellation for the
volumetric 4D FIX extended clean data that's in MNI
(100307/MNINonLinear/Results/rfMRI_REST1_RL/rfMRI_REST1_RL_hp2000_clean.nii.gz).
However, the aparc+aseg and the fMRI volumetric 4D data are of different
dimensions and resolution.

I'm assuming that the warp was really done in the same (MNI) template, but
that the aparc+aseg parcellation was not resliced to match the 4D
functional data?

Is there another aparc+aseg that's of dimensions matching the volumetric 4D
data (in MNINonLinear) that can be directly overlaid?

Thanks,
Joelle

[HCP-Users] FIX-denoised

2015-12-09 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi everyone,

I'm interested in using the FIX-denoised data, and am currently looking at
the extended package, as I'm interested in the volumetric data.

I'm wondering whether the motion parameters have already been regressed out
from the FIX denoised rfMRI_REST1_LR_hp2000_clean.nii.gz?

I'm assuming yes, that the FIX denoised actually already deals with this by
separating the motion-related noise into a component and filtering that out
of the signal?  I assume so based on the following snippet from the manual
describing FIX-ed data:
"As part of this cleanup, we also used 24 confound timeseries derived from
the motion estimation (the 6 rigid-body parameter timeseries, their
backwards-looking temporal derivatives, plus all 12 resulting regressors
squared — Satterthwaite et al., 2013). The motion parameters have the
temporal highpass filtering applied to them and are then regressed out of
the data aggressively, as they are not expected to contain variance of
interest."
Am I correct?

Has white matter and/or cerebrospinal fluid been regressed already from the
FIX denoised fMRI timeseries?

Has physiological data (“rfMRI_REST1_LR_Physio_log”) already been regressed
from the FIX denoised data?

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Joelle

Re: [HCP-Users] FIX-denoised

2015-12-09 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Michael,

Thanks for your help. I have a few more questions below..

Has an average timeseries for WM (and CSF) signal been already computed by
HCP?
Perhaps this is the "rfMRI_REST1_LR_WM.txt" and the
"rfMRI_REST1_LR_CSF.txt" in the FIX extended package?

Is there a recommended way of regressing these out?

Related to my previous question: Has physiological data
(“rfMRI_REST1_LR_Physio_log”) already been regressed from the FIX denoised
data?
I cannot actually find a rfMRI Physio log file in the FIX-ed dataset, I can
only find this Physio log file in the minimally preprocessed dataset. I
suppose I can use that one? But I'd assume there should be one in the
FIX-ed dataset folder as well...

Thanks,
Joelle

[HCP-Users] Demographic and behavioral subject data

2015-11-30 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hello everyone,

I want to pick a group of subjects from the 500 subjects +MEG2  for which I
will perform (rsfMRI and dMRI) analysis. These should be young, healthy,
subjects that have no abnormalities and cognitively able.

Does anyone have any pointers about how I can go weeding out subjects?
Under "Subject Information" of all subjects, I can see a list of all
subjects, where I can see age, release and gender. And when I click on the
subject, I find a bunch of behavioral tests and their results for that
subject.

Should subjects from different releases be combined? Which is the most
recent release?

Are there certain scores for cognitive assessments that are considered to
weed out the cognitively able, healthy subjects? Is this data available
somewhere in a spreadsheet form, without having to go into each subject and
scrolling though their various assessment scores?

Anything would help.
Thanks,
Joelle

Hi Michael and Jennifer,

Thank you both for your help, much appreciated. One remaining question - is
there currently any cutoff for cognitive scores (i.e. for the MMSE for ex)
for subjects being included in the 500 release dataset?  Can't find mention
of it in the ref manual, so Im guessing probably not.

Thanks,

Re: [HCP-Users] Demographic and behavioral subject data

2015-11-30 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Jennifer,

Thanks a lot for your help, that's really useful.

With regard to the reconstruction - I just wanted to clarify, and apologies
if this is in the manual but I did not find it - When I filter by 'Study
Completion' > 'Image Reconstruction' > 3T MR fMRI recon, I have 2 options -
r177 and r227.

Which is the more recent/ considered 'better' reconstruction method?

I suspect that the r227 is better if I am interested in using both
diffusion MRI data and fMRI data, as the r227 is available for both,
whereas r177 is only available for fMRI data, and not for dMRI. Is that
correct?

Thanks,
Joelle

Re: [HCP-Users] CIFTI and NIFTI -parcellating rfMRI

2015-11-26 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Michael and Tim,

Thanks for your help. Does the HCP have its own parcellations that are
surface based, or do you have any recommendations?

Are you familiar with the Freesurfer Desikan Killiany cortical atlas  - it
seems that it for example respects the cortical surface?: "The FreeSurfer
utilities mris_ca_train and mris_ca_label together implement a technique
for automatically assigning a neuroanatomical label to each location on a
cortical surface model based on probabilistic information estimated from a
manually labeled training set." (
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/CorticalParcellation).

My ultimate goal is to get a region-wise FC matrix. After parcellating the
cifti into my chosen parcellation atlas, I will be left with region-wise
time series, is that correct? After that, could I just convert the cifti to
nifti and work with that? I presume at that point I wouldn't need the
spatial info (actually Im not actually sure what kind of spatial info this
is?)

Thanks,
Joelle

Hi Tim,

Thanks for your response. Within the Resting State fMRI 1 preprocessed in
the 500 Subjects + MEG2, I see the rfMRI_REST1_LR.nii.gz, which I presume
is the Nifti-1 data. And then I see an rfMRI_REST1_LR_Atlas.dtseries.nii  -
Is that the dtseries.nii Cifti you refer to? Could you explain a bit more
about what's special about the Cifti file? I understand it Cifti is able to
handle  surface vertices and subcortical voxels in one file (i.e. gray
ordinates).

My ultimate goal is to parcellate the brain into cortical regions of
interest, in order to ultimately look at regional functional connectivity
matrices. Do I need the dtseries.nii cifti for that? It seems like the
advantage of that is having surface vertices (i.e. knowing the precise
shape of the surface of the brain) - which I don't think I need for a
standard FC matrix...

Thanks,
Joelle

[HCP-Users] CIFTI and NIFTI -parcellating rfMRI

2015-11-24 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi all,

I'm working with the 500subjects + MEG2 preprocessed Resting State fMRI 1
Preprocessed dataset.

Is the data just standard voxel-wise Nifti (it indeed looks like Nifti-1),
or is it in a Cifti format that I need to convert to Nifti? My goal is to
parcellate this data into ROI's, and I have a script that does this based
on voxel-wise data, but as I understand Cifti is in gray ordinates.

Hi Matt,

Glad you do point that out, because I was previously looking at the Resting
State fMRI 1 Preprocessed, but the Resting State fMRI FIX-Denoised
(Compact) is readily available. So I guess for that all I'll need to do is
demean and variance normalize, and/or average the two FCs.

Hi Jennifer,

That's good to hear! I don't have much experience with tractography, but it
looks like bedpostX creates all the files you need for running
probabilistic tractography (probabilistic tractography itself is run with
probtrackX for example). I suppose the probabilistic tractography is
something that would come in a later release.

Thanks,

Re: [HCP-Users] Phase Encoding left-to-right and right-to-left

2015-11-23 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Jennifer and Matt,

Thanks for your help. I have a few clarification questions below:
Does it matter in which order I concatenate the LR and the RL .nii's? My
ultimate goal is to create a functional connectivity matrix from the time
series.
#3 in the link you sent describes that there are 4 runs per subject. Is
this the REST 1, and REST 2, each with LR and RL phase encoding directions?
Would using only one phase encoding direction (i.e. do analysis on LR)
expect to effect the results?

Thanks,
Joelle

[HCP-Users] Tractography on diffusion data for SC matrices

2015-11-23 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi Jennifer,

I previously posted a question to the mailing list, and wanted to check
with you as you may have a bit more of an insiders scoop.

I was wondering whether tractography has been performed on the diffusion
data for the end of creating structural connectivity matrices for
individual subjects; or something that is in the plans?  I would expect
this is something that would be of interest to quite a few people, and
would definitely be of a lot of use to me.

Thanks,
Joelle

[HCP-Users] Has anybody done tractography on HCP diffusion data?

2015-11-19 Thread Joelle Zimmermann
Hi - I'm a researcher at the McIntosh lab at the Rotman Research Institute.
A few of us here are planning on working with HCP data. I was wondering
whether anybody is working on (or aware of a group working on) fully
preprocessing and tractography on HCP diffusion data, parcellated into some
kind of structural connectivity matrix? Of course we would provide
authorship to whoever is providing the tractographied data.

I'd expect there must be quite a few folks who would be interested in this.

I'm also interested in preprocessed rfMRI functional connectivity matrices
in a matching parcellation.  However, more important is that diffusion data
already undergone tractography and in a certain parcellation in the form of
a SC matrix.

Any direction would really help.
Thanks a lot,
Joelle
