– In sum, we link baseline dFC temporal dynamics to a mechanistic account of recovery capacity framed as flexibility + stability.

The empirical result that higher TV and higher CS both predict larger naming gains is interpreted as neural dynamics with large-magnitude but low-frequency fluctuations that may support functional network reorganization underlying recovery
