Corresponding anatomical and coactivation architecture of the human precuneus showing similar connectivity patterns with macaques

J Wang, B Becker, L Wang, H Li, X Zhao, T Jiang - Neuroimage, 2019 - Elsevier
The precuneus (PCun) is one of the most expanded areas of the association cortex and
plays an important role in integrating information from different modalities. However, whether …

Functional connectivity mapping of the human precuneus by resting state fMRI

S Zhang, RL Chiang-shan - Neuroimage, 2012 - Elsevier
Precuneus responds to a wide range of cognitive processes. Here, we examined how the
patterns of resting state connectivity may define functional subregions in the precuneus …

Precuneus shares intrinsic functional architecture in humans and monkeys

DS Margulies, JL Vincent, C Kelly… - Proceedings of the …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
Evidence from macaque monkey tracing studies suggests connectivity-based subdivisions
within the precuneus, offering predictions for similar subdivisions in the human. Here we …

The precuneus: a review of its functional anatomy and behavioural correlates

AE Cavanna, MR Trimble - Brain, 2006 - academic.oup.com
Functional neuroimaging studies have started unravelling unexpected functional attributes

Characteristic cortico-cortical connection profile of human precuneus revealed by probabilistic tractography

T Jitsuishi, A Yamaguchi - Scientific reports, 2023 - nature.com
It is generally hypothesized that functional connectivity (FC) reflects the underlying structural
connectivity (SC). The precuneus is associated with highly integrated cognitive functions …

Central precuneus lesions are associated with impaired executive function

BE Yeager, J Bruss, H Duffau, G Herbet… - Brain Structure and …, 2022 - Springer
The functional roles of the precuneus are unclear. Focal precuneus lesions are rare, making
it difficult to identify robust brain–behavior relationships. Distinct functional subdivisions of …

A precuneal causal loop mediates external and internal information integration in the human brain

D Lyu, I Pappas, DK Menon… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
Human brains interpret external stimuli based on internal representations. One untested
hypothesis is that the default-mode network (DMN), widely considered responsible for …
