This study shows that serotonin reduces belief stickiness, improving state inference, and links this effect to the therapeutic benefits of SSRIs in obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The paper uses computational modeling and fMRI to investigate how environmental uncertainty influences premature decision-making impulsivity in humans.

This study investigates cortical somatotopy in chronic low back pain patients and finds no evidence of altered somatotopic maps, challenging the hypothesis of sensory reorganization.

This study compares serum tryptophan pathway alterations in chronic METH and MDMA users, finding distinct metabolic changes linked to psychiatric symptoms.

The paper uses fMRI and representational similarity analysis to map cortical representations of paraspinal sensory input, finding a dermatomal organization in sensorimotor cortices.

The paper maps cortical representations of paraspinal afferents using fMRI and vibrotactile stimulation, finding topographic differences between high- and low-frequency stimulation and upper/lower back regions.

This study examines how dopamine agonist treatment affects resting-state network connectivity in Parkinson's disease patients, revealing both non-normalising and potential normalising effects on brain networks.

The paper examines abnormal processing of uncertainty in at-risk mental state individuals using computational models and fMRI, finding increased volatility estimates and altered cortical activation patterns.

This study finds that chronic cocaine users show altered sensitivity to gain information during risky decision-making, leading to increased risk-seeking in unfavorable scenarios.
