Neural Activity Related to Drug Craving in Cocaine Addiction

TL;DR: The collected findings suggest the craving-related activation of a network of limbic, paralimbic, and striatal brain regions, including structures involved in stimulus-reward association (amygdala), incentive motivation (subcallosal gyrus/nucleus accumbens), and anticipation (anterior cingulate cortex).
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of posterior parietal cortex in the recalibration of visually guided reaching.

TL;DR: PET is used to localize changes in regional cerebral blood flow in subjects who performed a prism-adaptation task as well as a task that controlled for the sensory, motor and cognitive conditions of the adaptation experiment to show selective activation of posterior parietal cortex contralateral to the reaching limb.
Journal ArticleDOI

Onset of left ventricular mechanical contraction as determined by phase analysis of ECG-gated myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging: development of a diagnostic tool for assessment of cardiac mechanical dyssynchrony.

TL;DR: The OMC normal databases and dynamic OMC displays should help clinicians evaluate cardiac mechanic dyssynchrony and prospects are needed to validate whether this tool can be used to select patients with severe heart failure symptoms who might benefit from cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain blood flow alterations induced by therapeutic vagus nerve stimulation in partial epilepsy: I. Acute effects at high and low levels of stimulation.

TL;DR: Left cervical vagus nerve stimulation decreases complex partial seizures by unknown mechanisms of action and alters synaptic activities at vagal afferent terminations and in sites that receive polysynaptic projections from these medullary nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations in the functional anatomy of working memory in adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

TL;DR: The use of compensatory mental and neural strategies by subjects with ADHD in response to a disrupted ability to inhibit attention to nonrelevant stimuli and the use of internalized speech to guide behavior are suggested.
