Altered Intrinsic Functional Connectivity in Language-Related Brain Regions in Association with Verbal Memory Performance in Euthymic Bipolar Patients [PDF]
Potential abnormalities in the structure and function of the temporal lobes have been studied much less in bipolar disorder than in schizophrenia. This may not be justified because language-related symptoms, such as pressured speech and flight of ideas ...

Language prediction mechanisms in human auditory cortex
The human brain fluently parses continuous speech during perception and production. Using direct brain recordings coupled with stimulation, the authors identify separable substrates underlying two distinct predictive mechanisms of “when” in Heschl’s ...

Differences in Intrinsic Brain Abnormalities Between Patients With Left- and Right-Sided Long-Term Hearing Impairment [PDF]
Unilateral hearing impairment is characterized by asymmetric hearing input, which causes bilateral unbalanced auditory afferents and tinnitus of varying degrees. Long-term hearing imbalance can cause functional reorganization in the brain.

Heschl’s gyrus and the temporal pole: The cortical lateralization of language
The left lateralization of language has been attributed to hemispheric specialization for processing rapidly changing information. While interhemispheric differences in auditory cortex organization support this view, the macrostructure of the entire ...

Representations of pitch and slow modulation in auditory cortex [PDF]
Iterated ripple noise (IRN) is a type of pitch-evoking stimulus that is commonly used in neuroimaging studies of pitch processing. When contrasted with a spectrally matched Gaussian noise, it is known to produce a consistent response in a region of ...

Cognitive reappraisal modulates neural responses to aversive sensory stimulation in autistic youth. [PDF]
Background Sensory over‐responsivity (SOR) is highly prevalent and impairing in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyperresponsivity and reduced prefrontal top‐down regulation during sensory stimulation. There are few evidence‐based treatments for SOR, but cognitive reappraisal, an emotion regulation strategy ...

MEG correlates of temporal regularity relevant to pitch perception in human auditory cortex
We recorded neural responses in human participants to three types of pitch-evoking regular stimuli at rates below and above the lower limit of pitch using magnetoencephalography (MEG). These bandpass filtered (1–4 kHz) stimuli were harmonic complex tones

Altered Fronto-Temporal Functional Connectivity in Individuals at Ultra-High-Risk of Developing Psychosis. [PDF]
The superior temporal gyrus (STG) is one of the key regions implicated in psychosis, given that abnormalities in this region are associated with an increased risk of conversion from an at-risk mental state to psychosis.

PET Visualized Stimulation of the Vestibular Organ in Menière's Disease
Introduction: The cortical metabolic activity in patients with Menière's disease has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the 18F-FDG cerebral uptake in Menière's patients compared to healthy controls.Method: Eight patients ...
