Journal ArticleDOI
Neural correlates of focused attention and cognitive monitoring in meditation.
Antonietta Manna,Antonino Raffone,Antonino Raffone,Mauro Gianni Perrucci,Davide Nardo,Davide Nardo,Antonio Ferretti,Armando Tartaro,Alessandro Londei,Cosimo Del Gratta,Marta Olivetti Belardinelli,Gian Luca Romani +11 more
TL;DR: The evidence suggests that expert meditators control cognitive engagement in conscious processing of sensory-related, thought and emotion contents, by massive self-regulation of fronto-parietal and insular areas in the left hemisphere, in a meditation state-dependent fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute Effects of Modafinil on Brain Resting State Networks in Young Healthy Subjects
Roberto Esposito,Franco Cilli,Valentina Pieramico,Antonio Ferretti,Antonella Macchia,Marco Tommasi,Aristide Saggino,Domenico Ciavardelli,Antonietta Manna,Riccardo Navarra,Filippo Cieri,Liborio Stuppia,Armando Tartaro,Stefano L. Sensi +13 more
TL;DR: The findings support the notion that modafinil has cognitive enhancing properties and provide functional connectivity data to support these effects.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Neural Correlates of Mindfulness and Concentration in Buddhist Monks: A fMRI study
Antonino Raffone,Antonietta Manna,G.M. Perrucci,Antonio Ferretti,C. Del Gratta,Marta Olivetti Belardinelli,Gian Luca Romani +6 more
TL;DR: This fMRI study investigates neural correlates of both concentrative and mindfulness-based meditation forms, in long-term meditators (Buddhist monks), and finds selective activation and deactivation patterns associated to these meditation forms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Left hippocampus–amygdala complex macro- and microstructural variation is associated with BDNF plasma levels in healthy elderly individuals
Antonietta Manna,Fabrizio Piras,Carlo Caltagirone,Paola Bossù,Stefano L. Sensi,Stefano L. Sensi,Gianfranco Spalletta +6 more
TL;DR: This study investigated the potential relationship between levels of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a putative biomarker of age and clinically relevant brain dysfunctions, and the presence of structural modifications that were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging in six deep GM structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Several different identification approaches have been developed, often combining two or more observables as discussed by the authors , with emphasis on the expertise gained within the current nuclear physics scientific program of the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN).
