Midcingulate cortex (MCC) has risen in prominence as human imaging identifies unique
structural and functional activity therein and this is the first review of its structure …

Traditionally, studies of how pain and attention modulate one another involved explicit
cognitive-state manipulations. However, emerging evidence suggests that spontaneous …

Pain experienced during neonatal intensive care management can influence
neurodevelopmental outcome and the somatosensory and/or emotional components of pain …

There are many known risk factors for chronic pain conditions, yet the biological
underpinnings that link these factors to abnormal processing of painful signals are only just …

MR-based brain imaging technologies provide a suite of functional and structural metrics
that can be used to test hypotheses about the CNS mechanisms underlying pain perception …

Imaging of the living human brain is a powerful tool to probe the interactions between brain,
gut and microbiome in health and in disorders of brain–gut interactions, in particular IBS …

Chronic low back pain is a common neurological disorder. The periaqueductal gray (PAG)
plays a key role in the descending modulation of pain. In this study, we investigated brain …

Alterations in gray matter (GM) density/volume and cortical thickness (CT) have been
demonstrated in small and heterogeneous samples of subjects with differing chronic pain …

Subjective well-being is assumed to be distributed in the hedonic hotspots of subcortical and
cortical structures. However, the precise neural correlates underlying this construct …

The frontotemporal cortical network is associated with behaviours such as impulsivity and
aggression. The health of the uncinate fasciculus (UF) that connects the orbitofrontal cortex …
