Objective Epilepsies are a group of neurological disorders sharing certain core features, but also demonstrate remarkable pathogenic and symptomatic heterogeneities. Various subtypes of epilepsy have been identified with abnormal shift in the brain default mode network (DMN). This study aims to evaluate the fine details of shared and distinct alterations in the DMN among epileptic subtypes. Methods We collected resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from a large epilepsy sample (n = 371) at a single center, including temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), and genetic generalized epilepsy with generalized tonic‐clonic seizures (GGE‐GTCS), as well as healthy controls (HC, n = 150). We analyzed temporal dynamics profiling of the DMN, including edge‐wise and node‐wise temporal variabilities, and recurrent dynamic states of functional connectivity, to identify abnormalities common to epilepsies as well as those specific to each subtype. Results The analyses revealed that hypervariable edges within the specific DMN subsystem were shared by all subtypes (all PNBS < .005), and deficits in node‐wise temporal variability were prominent in TLE (all t(243) ≤ 2.51, PFDR < .05) and FLE (all t(302) ≤ –2.65, PFDR < .05) but relatively weak in GGE‐GTCS. Moreover, dynamic states were generally less stable in patients than controls (all P’s < .001). Significance Collectively, these findings demonstrated general DMN abnormalities common to different epilepsies as well as distinct dysfunctions to subtypes, and provided insights into understanding the relationship of pathophysiological mechanisms and brain connectivity.
