The Lateral Prefrontal Cortex and Selection/Inhibition in ADHD

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
A previous paper from our lab (Shalom, 2009) presented evidence that the medial part of the prefrontal cortex is involved in the integration of raw, unintegrated information into coherent, wholistic mental representations such as perceptual objects ...

Increased firing irregularity as an emergent property of neural-state transition in monkey prefrontal cortex. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Flexible behaviors are organized by complex neural networks in the prefrontal cortex. Recent studies have suggested that such networks exhibit multiple dynamical states, and can switch rapidly from one state to another.

Alterations in brain functional connectivity in patients with mild cognitive impairment: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of functional near‐infrared spectroscopy studies

Brain and Behavior
Emerging evidences suggest that cognitive deficits in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are associated with disruptions in brain functional connectivity (FC).

The dynamics of disordered dialogue: Prefrontal, hippocampal and thalamic miscommunication underlying working memory deficits in schizophrenia

Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 2018
The prefrontal cortex is central to the orchestrated brain network communication that gives rise to working memory and other cognitive functions. Accordingly, working memory deficits in schizophrenia are increasingly thought to derive from prefrontal ...

Prefrontal cortical thickness in motor neuron disease

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2018
Objective: To examine whether the distribution of prefrontal cortical thickness in patients with motor neuron disease is normal or bimodal and how it compares to the normal population.

The Anterior Prefrontal Cortex and the Hippocampus Are Negatively Correlated during False Memories

Brain Sciences, 2017
False memories commonly activate the anterior/dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (A/DLPFC) and the hippocampus. These regions are assumed to work in concert during false memories, which would predict a positive correlation between the magnitudes of activity ...

Different prefrontal cortex activity patterns in bipolar and unipolar depression during verbal fluency tasks based on functional near infrared spectroscopy study

Scientific Reports
This study aimed to investigate the functionality of the prefrontal cortex in patients with unipolar depression (UD) and bipolar depression (BD) using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during a verbal fluency task (VFT).

N-acetyl-aspartate level is decreased in the prefrontal cortex in subjects at-risk for schizophrenia.

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
Reduced N-Acetyl-Aspartate (NAA) levels have been reported in the prefrontal cortex in patients with schizophrenia using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

A neuropsychological test of belief and doubt: Damage to ventromedial prefrontal cortex increases credulity for misleading advertising

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2012
We have proposed the False Tagging Theory as a neurobiological model of belief and doubt processes. The theory posits that the prefrontal cortex is critical for normative doubt toward properly comprehended ideas or cognitions.

Prefrontal Abilities

Behavioural Neurology, 1993
The neuroanatomical region that has most prominently altered with the advancing cognitive competency of the human is the prefrontal cortex, particularly the rostral extreme.
