Response errors in VWM tasks arise from the imprecise memory of target items, swaps between targets and nontargets, and random guesses. However, it remains unclear whether these types of errors are underpinned by distinct neural networks. To answer this question, we recruited 80 healthy adults to perform delayed estimation tasks and acquired their resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scans. The tasks required participants to reproduce the memorized visual feature along continuous scales, which, combined with mixture distribution modeling, allowed us to estimate the measures of memory precision, swap errors, and random guesses. Intrinsic functional connectivity within and between different networks, identified using a hierarchical clustering approach, was estimated for each participant. Our analyses revealed that higher memory precision was associated with increased connectivity within a frontal-opercular network, as well as between the dorsal attention network and an angular-gyrus-cerebellar network. We also found that coupling between the frontoparietal control network and the cingulo-opercular network contributes to both memory precision and random guesses. Our findings demonstrate that distinct sources of variability in VWM performance are underpinned by different yet partially overlapping intrinsic functional networks.</p>","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"34 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11464681/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142388352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specific brain regions exhibited paradoxical dynamics within the seizure onset zone, with decreased intrinsic ignition and increased metastability. Increased intrinsic ignition was observed in remote brain regions, suggesting a reorganization of the brain network hubs and potential pathways for seizure propagation.

We compared the model activity with human electrophysiological data and human resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. This comparison reveals that the model can reproduce aspects of both spiking statistics and fMRI correlations if the inter-areal connections are sufficiently strong.

Previous research has demonstrated that cortical oscillations and corticospinal excitability respond flexibly to postural demands. However, it is unclear how corticocortical and corticomuscular connectivity changes dynamically during standing with spontaneous postural sway and over time. This study investigated the dynamics of sway- and time-varying connectivity using electroencephalography and electromyography. Electroencephalography and electromyography were recorded in sitting position and 3 standing postures with varying base-of-support: normal standing, one-leg standing, and standing on a piece of wood. For sway-varying connectivity, corticomuscular connectivity was calculated based on the timing of peak velocity in anteroposterior sway. For time-varying connectivity, corticocortical connectivity was measured using the sliding-window approach. This study found that corticomuscular connectivity was strengthened at the peak velocity of postural sway in the γ- and β-frequency bands. For time-varying corticocortical connectivity, the θ-connectivity in all time-epoch was classified into 7 clusters including posture-relevant component. In one of the 7 clusters, strong connectivity pairs were concentrated in the mid-central region, and the proportion of epochs under narrow-base standing conditions was significantly higher, indicating a functional role for posture balance. These findings shed light on the connectivity dynamics and cortical oscillation that govern standing balance.</p>","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"34 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142406165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Neurophysiological investigations in macaques have provided evidence for the functional specialization of these subregions, but an understanding of the relative representational topography of sensory, social, and cognitive processes within them remains elusive. One explanatory factor is that evidence for functional specialization has been compiled largely from a patchwork of findings across studies, in many animals, and with considerable variation in stimulus sets and tasks. Here, we addressed this by leveraging the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) to carry out large-scale neurophysiological mapping of the lateral prefrontal cortex using high-density microelectrode arrays, and a diverse suite of test stimuli including faces, marmoset calls, and spatial working memory task. Task-modulated units and units responsive to visual and auditory stimuli were distributed throughout the lateral prefrontal cortex, while those with saccade-related activity or face-selective responses were restricted to 8aV, 8aD, 10, 46 V, and 47. Neurons with contralateral visual receptive fields were limited to areas 8aV and 8aD.

Electroencephalography data were collected to explore how neural activity changes across these coordination modes and phases. We applied deep learning methods to classify single-trial electroencephalography data and predict behavioral timing conditions. Results showed significant classification accuracy for distinguishing between pacing and continuation phases, particularly during the presence of auditory cues, emphasizing the role of auditory input in motor timing. However, when auditory components were removed from the electroencephalography data, the differentiation between phases became inconclusive. Mean accuracy asynchrony, a measure of timing error, emerged as a superior predictor of performance variability compared to inter-response interval.
