Journal ArticleDOI

Placebo and opioid analgesia - Imaging a shared neuronal network

TL;DR: Using positron emission tomography, it is confirmed that both opioid and placebo analgesia are associated with increased activity in the rostral anterior cingulate cortex and the brainstem, indicating a related neural mechanism in placebo and opioid analgesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of Word Meaning and World Knowledge in Language Comprehension

TL;DR: Electroencephalogram data are presented that show the rapid parallel integration of both semantic and world knowledge during the interpretation of a sentence and indicate that the brain keeps a record of what makes a sentence hard to interpret.
Journal ArticleDOI

Declarative memory consolidation in humans: a prospective functional magnetic resonance imaging study.

TL;DR: Over the course of the entire study, hippocampal activity for correct confident recognition continued to decrease, whereas activity in a ventral medial prefrontal region increased, which may prompt a revision of classical consolidation theory, incorporating a transfer of putative linking nodes from hippocampal to prelimbic prefrontal areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuronal Dynamics Underlying High- and Low-Frequency EEG Oscillations Contribute Independently to the Human BOLD Signal

TL;DR: The results indicate that the BOLD-gamma coupling observed in animals can be extrapolated to humans performing a task and that neuronal dynamics underlying high- and low-frequency synchronization contribute independently to the Bold signal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pain-related cerebral activation is altered by a distracting cognitive task

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether attention-related modulations are present in the processing of pain, measuring the regional cerebral blood flow was measured using [(15)O]butanol and positron emission tomography in conditions involving both pain and parallel cognitive demands.
