TL;DR: The proposed fractional ALFF (fALFF) approach improved the sensitivity and specificity in detecting spontaneous brain activities and the brain areas within the default mode network including posterior cingulate cortex, precuneus, medial prefrontal cortex and bilateral inferior parietal lobule had significantly higher fALFF than the other brain areas.

TL;DR: The present study explores the neural basis of the development of inhibitory control by combining functional neuroimaging with a parametric manipulation of a go-nogo paradigm and indicates that immature cognition is more susceptible to interference and this is paralleled by maturational differences in underlying fronto-striatal circuitry.

TL;DR: It is shown that children without ADHD have increased susceptibility to interference with increasing numbers of go trials preceding a nogo trial, but children with ADHD have difficulty even with a single go trial preceding anogo trial.

TL;DR: A tight coupling between blood supply and brain functional topology during rest and its modulation in response to task demands is indicated, which may shed light on the physiological basis of human brain functional connectome.

TL;DR: The data suggest that, despite the distinct evolutionary paths between rodent and primate brain, a well-organized, intrinsically coherent DMN appears to be a fundamental feature in the mammalian brain whose primary functions might be to integrate multimodal sensory and affective information to guide behavior in anticipation of changing environmental contingencies.
