DOI: 10.1002/ana.24906
Abstract: Elevated levels of cardiac troponin, and especially their relative changes over time, indicate acute myocardial injury. They are also frequently observed after acute ischemic stroke (AIS), indicating poor functional outcome and increased mortality. However, recent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ejp.1205
Abstract: Chronification of pain is associated with both anatomical and functional alterations of the brain. Alteration in regional grey matter volume might potentially be associated with modified activity of specific brain networks. In this cross‐sectional, observational… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-28278-9
Abstract: In humans, risk attitude is highly context-dependent, varying with wealth levels or for different potential outcomes, such as gains or losses. These behavioral effects have been modelled using prospect theory, with the key assumption that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-020-0862-z
Abstract: Findings have shown that anterior insular cortex (aIC) lesions disrupt the maintenance of drug addiction, while imaging studies suggest that connections between amygdala and aIC participate in drug-seeking. However, the role of the BLA → aIC pathway… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.77411
Abstract: How does binge drinking alcohol change synaptic function, and do these changes maintain binge consumption? The anterior insular cortex (AIC) and dorsolateral striatum (DLS) are brain regions implicated in alcohol use disorder. In male, but… read more here.
