Background Abnormalities in resting‐state functional brain activity have been detected in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The results of individual neuroimaging studies of TLE, however, are frequently inconsistent due to small and heterogeneous samples, analytical flexibility, and publication bias toward positive findings. Purpose To investigate the most consistent regions of resting‐state functional brain activity abnormality in patients with TLE through a quantitative meta‐analysis of published neuroimaging data. Study Type Meta‐analysis. Subjects Exactly 1474 TLE patients (716 males and 758 females) from 31 studies on resting‐state functional brain activity were included in this study. Field Strength/Sequence Studies utilizing 1.5 T or 3 T MR scanners were included for meta‐analysis. Resting‐state functional MRI using gradient echo‐planar imaging, T1‐weighted imaging. Assessment PubMed, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and WanFang databases were searched to identify studies investigating amplitude of low‐frequency fluctuation (ALFF), fractional ALFF (fALFF), and regional homogeneity (ReHo) at the whole‐brain level between patients with TLE and healthy controls (HCs). Statistical Tests Seed‐based d Mapping with Permutation of Subject Images, standard randomization tests and meta‐regression analysis were used. Results were significant if P < 0.05 with family‐wise error corrected. Results Patients with TLE displayed resting‐state functional brain activity which was a significant increase in the right hippocampus, and significant decrease in the right angular gurus and right precuneus. Additionally, the meta‐regression analysis demonstrated that age ( P = 0.231), sex distribution ( P = 0.376), and illness duration ( P = 0.184), did not show significant associations with resting state functional brain activity in patients with TLE. Data Conclusion Common alteration patterns of spontaneous brain activity were identified in the right hippocampus and default‐model network regions in patients with TLE. These findings may contribute to understanding of the underlying mechanism for potentially effective intervention of TLE. Level of Evidence 1. Technical Efficacy Stage Stage 2.
