Simulation theories predict that the observation of other's expressions modulates neural
activity in the same centers controlling their production. This hypothesis has been developed …

Aberrant cognitive network activity and cognitive deficits are established features of chronic
pain. However, the nature of cognitive network alterations associated with chronic pain and …

The triple network model suggests that dysfunction in three major brain networks–the default
mode network (DMN), central executive network (CEN), and salience network (SN)–might …

The insula plays a significant role in the neural mechanisms of obsessive-compulsive
disorder. Previous studies have identified functional and structural abnormalities in insula in …

The insular cortex is a highly connected brain region 1, 2 and is amongst the most
commonly activated regions across imaging studies. As its name indicates, it is an “island” of …

Background. The heartbeat evoked potential (HEP) is a brain response time-locked to the
heartbeat and a potential marker of interoceptive processing. The insula and dorsal anterior …

INTRODUCTION The spatial and temporal patterns of cortical mean diffusivity (cMD), as well
as its association with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and suspected non‐Alzheimer's …

Abstract Pathological Brain Detection (PBD) is a crucial field aimed at identifying and
diagnosing structural or functional abnormalities in the brain related to neurological …

La scoperta dei neuroni specchio rappresenta un punto di svolta nelle neuroscienze. Questi
neuroni, inizialmente identificati nella corteccia premotoria ventrale della scimmia, si …
