Pilots are considered the final line of defense for aviation safety. Before becoming a pilot, an ab initio pilot must undergo systematic flight training. This study included 25 male flying cadets. Kendall's coefficient of concordance was used to measure the regional homogeneity of the time series of a given voxel with its 26 nearest neighboring voxels. This operation was performed for all voxels to generate a regional homogeneity map for each participant based on Kendall's coefficient of concordance. A partial correlation analysis was performed to examine the relationship between regional homogeneity maps and flight training hours. We found that the anterior cingulate cortex in the ab initio group was significantly positively correlated with flight hours. These results suggest a potential relationship between flight training experience and the functional properties of the anterior cingulate cortex.
飞行员被视为航空安全的最后一道防线。在成为飞行员之前，从头开始培训的飞行员必须接受系统的飞行训练。本研究纳入了25名男性飞行学员。使用肯德尔和谐系数来测量给定体素与其26个最邻近体素的时间序列的区域同质性。对所有体素进行此操作，以基于肯德尔和谐系数为每个参与者生成区域同质性图。进行偏相关分析以检验区域同质性图与飞行训练时长之间的关系。我们发现从头开始培训组的前扣带回皮质与飞行时长显著正相关。这些结果表明飞行训练经验与前扣带回皮质的功能特性之间存在潜在关系。
