Sequential Deactivation Across the Hippocampus‐Thalamus‐mPFC Pathway During Loss of Consciousness
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Advanced Science"
DOI: 10.1002/advs.202406320
Abstract: How consciousness is lost in states such as sleep or anesthesia remains a mystery. To gain insight into this phenomenon, concurrent recordings of electrophysiology signals in the anterior cingulate cortex and whole‐brain functional magnetic resonance… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ana.26030
Abstract: For patients with severe brain injuries in the intensive care unit (ICU), consciousness can be present in the absence of purposeful responses on bedside examination. If consciousness goes undetected, clinicians can render an inaccurate, pessimistic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.70357
Abstract: Although substantial progress has been made in mapping the connectivity of cortical networks responsible for conscious awareness, neuroimaging analysis of subcortical networks that modulate arousal (i.e., wakefulness) has been limited by a lack of robust… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00406-020-01167-2
Abstract: In the current literature, two distinct and opposite models are suggested to explain the consciousness disorders in schizophrenia. The first one suggests that consciousness disorders rely on a low-level processing deficit, when the second model… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00415-019-09542-3
Abstract: The vegetative state, also known as the unresponsive wakefulness syndrome, is one of the worst possible outcomes of acquired brain injury and confronts rehabilitation specialists with various challenges. Emergence to (minimal) consciousness is classically considered… read more here.
