The structural connectivity mapping of the intralaminar thalamic nuclei. [PDF]
AbstractThe intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus play a pivotal role in awareness, conscious experience, arousal, sleep, vigilance, as well as in cognitive, sensory, and sexual processing. Nonetheless, in humans, little is known about the direct involvement of these nuclei in such multifaceted functions and their structural connections in the brain ...

The thalamus and its subregions – a gateway to obsessive-compulsive disorder
Introduction Higher thalamic volume has been found in children with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and children with clinical-level symptoms within the general population (Boedhoe et al. 2017, Weeland et al. 2021a).

Smaller volume of posterior thalamic nuclei in patients with obsessive–compulsive disorder
Aim: Although the thalamus is a key structure in the pathophysiology of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), reports regarding thalamic volume alterations in OCD patients have been inconsistent.

Lifespan development of thalamic nuclei and characterizing thalamic nuclei abnormalities in schizophrenia using normative modeling. [PDF]
Thalamic abnormalities have been repeatedly implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Uncovering the etiology of thalamic abnormalities and how they may contribute to illness phenotypes faces at least two obstacles.

Differentiating Cerebellar Impact on Thalamic Nuclei [PDF]
The cerebellum plays a role in coordination of movements and non-motor functions. Cerebellar nuclei (CN) axons connect to various parts of the thalamo-cortical network, but detailed information on the characteristics of cerebello-thalamic connections is lacking.

Accelerated forgetting of contextual details due to focal medio-dorsal thalamic lesion [PDF]
Effects of thalamic nuclei damage and related white matter tracts on memory performance are still debated. This is particularly evident for the medio-dorsal thalamus which has been less clear in predicting amnesia than anterior thalamus changes.

Verticality misperception after stroke is a frequent neurological deficit that leads to postural imbalance and a higher risk of falls. The posterior thalamic nuclei are described to be involved with verticality perception, but it is unknown if extra ...

Consciousness CLEARS the Mind [PDF]
A full understanding of consciouness requires that we identify the brain processes from which conscious experiences emerge. What are these processes, and what is their utility in supporting successful adaptive behaviors?

Connectivity-based parcellation of the thalamus explains specific cognitive and behavioural symptoms in patients with bilateral thalamic infarct [PDF]
A novel approach based on diffusion tractography was used here to characterise the cortico-thalamic connectivity in two patients, both presenting with an isolated bilateral infarct in the thalamus, but exhibiting partially different cognitive and ...
