Role of the medial part of the intraparietal sulcus in implementing movement direction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The contribution of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) to visually guided movements has been originally inferred from observations made in patients suffering from optic ataxia.

Cortico-cortical connectivity between the superior and inferior parietal lobules and the motor cortex assessed by intraoperative dual cortical stimulation

open access: yesBrain Stimulation, 2020
Background: The function of the primate’s posterior parietal cortex (PPC) in sensorimotor transformations is well-established, though in humans its complexity is still challenging.

Parietal cortex and movement

open access: yesExperimental Brain Research, 1997
Recording studies in the parietal cortex have demonstrated single-unit activity in relation to sensory stimulation and during movement. We have performed three experiments to assess the effect of selective parietal lesions on sensory motor transformations.

Longitudinal Relationship Between Pain and Depression in People With Inflammatory Arthritis: A Narrative Review

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
As many patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have chronic pain, understanding how to best assess and manage pain in IA is a priority. Comorbid depression is prevalent in adults with IA, affecting 15% to 39% of people. Although pain and depression are thought to be associated in IA, this concept is largely based on cross‐sectional data.

Estimating frontal and parietal involvement in cognitive estimation: a study of focal neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
We often estimate an unknown value based on available relevant information, a process known as cognitive estimation. In this study, we assess the cognitive and neuroanatomic basis for quantitative estimation by examining deficits in patients with focal ...

Structure Learning and the Parietal Cortex

open access: yes, 2019
We propose a theory of structure learning in the primate brain. We argue that the parietal cortex is critical for learning about relations among the objects and categories that populate a visual scene. We suggest that current deep learning models exhibit poor global scene understanding because they fail to perform the relational inferences that occur ...

The left parietal cortex and motor attention

open access: yesNeuropsychologia, 1997
The posterior parietal cortex, particularly in the right hemisphere, is crucially important for covert orienting; lesions impair the ability to disengage the focus of covert orienting attention from one potential saccade target to another (Posner, M. I. et al., Journal of Neuroscience, 1984, 4, 1863-1874).

Automated Transcranial Photobiomodulation in Healthy Rats: Effects on Working Memory and Brain Markers

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Transcranial photobiomodulation (PBM) enhances spatial working memory in healthy rats under both continuous and alternating stimulation protocols. At the neural level, PBM modulates cytochrome c oxidase activity, increases prefrontal and hippocampal synaptic markers, and induces region‐specific c‐Fos expression. These effects suggest improved cognitive

Brain mechanisms of successful recognition through retrieval of semantic context [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Episodic memory is associated with the encoding and retrieval of context information and with a subjective sense of reexperiencing past events. The neural correlates of episodic retrieval have been extensively studied using fMRI, leading to the ...

Anodal tDCS over the right parietal but not frontal cortex enhances the ability to overcome task set inhibition during task switching.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Switching between tasks requires individuals to inhibit mental representations of the previous task demands and to activate representations of the new task demands. The inhibition of the executed task remains active for a while so that when the inhibited
