The diversity of lesion network mapping findings

This paper challenges a recent study's conclusion that lesion network mapping primarily maps brain changes to one outcome, arguing that the methodology and visualization contain errors and biases.

Gut Microbiota-derived Adenosine Determines the Efficacy of Electroconvulsive Therapy for Depression

This study shows that gut microbiota-derived adenosine affects the effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in depression by modulating neural activity and synaptic plasticity.

Subgenual Anterior Cingulate Cortex Functional Connectivity Abnormalities in Depression: Insights from Brain Imaging Big Data and Precision-Guided Personalized Intervention via Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

The paper identifies sgACC functional connectivity abnormalities in depression using large-scale brain imaging data and develops an individualized TMS targeting algorithm to improve treatment outcomes.

The somato-cognitive action network links diverse neuromodulatory targets for Parkinson's disease

This study identifies the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN) as a key pathway in Parkinson's disease, showing its dysfunction and link to neuromodulatory treatments.

High Gamma and Beta Temporal Interference Stimulation in the Human Motor Cortex Improves Motor Functions

This study shows that high gamma and beta TI stimulation improves motor function in humans by enhancing reaction time and motor cortex excitability.

Distinct Brain Mechanisms for Conflict Adaptation Within and Across Conflict Types

This study identifies distinct neural mechanisms for conflict adaptation within and across conflict types using fMRI, showing different activation and deactivation patterns in task-positive and task-negative networks.

Reduced Default Mode Network Functional Connectivity in Patients with Recurrent Major Depressive Disorder

The paper analyzes resting-state fMRI data from 1,300 MDD patients and 1,128 controls to find reduced default mode network functional connectivity in recurrent MDD, not first-episode MDD.
