Anatomical and functional plasticity in early blind individuals and the mixture of experts architecture.

( 2006 ) found no difference in mean diffusivity between 5 early blind subjects (3 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)) and 7 seven sighted controls, but did find a barely significant reduction in relative anisotropy within the ventral half of the splenium.

Consistent with this hypothesis, auditory and somatosensory regions also tend to show increased functional correlations with regions associated with cognitive control operations as a result of early blindness, though these increased functional correlations failed to reach significance within most individual ROIs (Burton et al., 2014 ).
