Previous studies have found that transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is clinically effective in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), and its efficacy mechanism related to modulation default mode network (DMN) cognitive control (CCN). However, immediate effect taVNS for MDD remains be elucidated. A total 58 patients with 54 healthy controls(HCs) were included this study. The group was treated 30 min (20 Hz, 4-6 mA) immediately, we observed amplitude...
Anxiety plays an important role in social behavior. For instance, high-anxious individuals are more likely to avoid such interactions as communicating with strangers. In this study, we investigate the impact of anxiety on decision-making. The classic ultimatum game (UG) paradigm was utilized concert skin conductance recording. Behavioral results reveal that when playing responders, high-trait (HTA) participants lower levels self-esteem, well low-trait (LTA) higher impulsivity, were accept...
This study investigated the potential causes of anxious people's social avoidance. The classic ultimatum game was utilized in concert with electroencephalogram recording. Participants were divided into two groups according to levels trait anxiety as identified by a self-report scale. behavioral results indicate that high-anxious participants more prone reject human-proposed than computer-proposed unequal offers compared their low-anxious counterparts. event-related group showed larger...
Valence and arousal are primary dimensions of affective stimuli. An interaction these two factors on processing is largely unknown. In this study, the pictures was investigated in an orthogonal valence (positive vs. negative) by (high low) task design. Participants were instructed to passively view each presented picture did not need make any responses. The observed three event-related potential (ERP) components, including P2 (160–190 ms), N2 (220–320 ms) late positive (LPP) (400–700 ms)....
The habenula is a hub for cognitive and emotional signals that are relayed to the aminergic centers in midbrain and, thus, plays an important role goal-oriented behaviors. Although it well described rodents non-human primates, functional network remains relatively uncharacterized humans, partly because of methodological challenges associated with magnetic resonance imaging small structures brain. Using high-resolution cardiac-gated resting state healthy humans precisely identifying each...
Rapid detection of evolutionarily relevant threats (e.g., fearful faces) is important for human survival. The ability to rapidly detect faces exhibits high variability across individuals. present study aimed investigate the relationship between behavioral and brain activity, using both event-related potential (ERP) oscillation (ERO) measurements. Faces with or neutral facial expressions were presented 17 ms 200 in a backward masking paradigm. Forty-two participants required discriminate...
Abstract Crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic are known to exacerbate depression and anxiety, though their temporal trajectories remain under-investigated. The present study aims investigate fluctuations in anxiety using a model crisis. A total of 1512 adults living United States enrolled this online beginning April 2, 2020 were assessed weekly for 10 weeks (until June 4, 2020). We measured Zung Self-Rating Depression scale State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (state subscale), respectively, along...
Previous neuroimaging has paid little attention to the differences in brain network integration between patients with treatment-resistant depression(TRD) and non-TRD (nTRD), relationship their impaired clinical symptoms not been elucidated. Eighty one major depressive disorder (MDD) (40 TRD, 41 nTRD) 40 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans. A seed-based connectivity (FC) method was used investigate abnormalities of default mode (DMN),...
The noradrenaline (NA) system is one of the brain's major neuromodulatory systems; it originates in a small midbrain nucleus, locus coeruleus (LC), and projects widely throughout brain.
The current study explored whether earned entitlement modulated the perception of fairness in three experiments. A preliminary resource earning task was added before players decided how to allocate they jointly earned. Participants' decision allocation, their responses equal or unequal offers, advantageous disadvantageous, and subjective ratings were all assessed study. Behavioral results revealed that participants proposed more generous offers showed enhanced tolerance disadvantageous from...
Abstract Social comparison, a widespread phenomenon in human society, has been found to affect outcome evaluation. The need belong social group may result distinct neural responses diverse comparison outcomes. To extend previous studies by examining how with hierarchical characteristics is temporally processed, electroencephalography were recorded the current study. Participants played lottery game two pseudo-players simultaneously and received both their own other players’ Results of three...
Background Studies on differences in brain function activity between the first depressive episode (FDE) and recurrent episodes (RDE) are scarce. In this study, we used regional homogeneity (ReHo) amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) as indices abnormal activity. We aimed to determine these patients with FDE those RDE, investigate correlation areas clinical symptoms. Methods A total 29 28 FDE, healthy controls (HCs) who underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging...
Background Neurobiological mechanisms underlying the recurrence of major depressive disorder (MDD) at different ages are unclear, and this study used regional homogeneity (ReHo) index to compare whether there differences between early onset recurrent depression (EORD) late (LORD). Methods Eighteen EORD patients, 18 LORD young healthy controls (HCs), older HCs were included in rs-fMRI scans. ReHo observational metrics for image analysis further correlation differential brain regions with...
Early childhood educational investment produces positive effects on cognitive and non-cognitive skills, health, socio-economic success. However, the of such interventions social decision-making later in life are unknown. We recalled participants from one oldest randomized controlled studies early investment-the Abecedarian Project (ABC)-to participate well-validated interactive economic games that probe norm enforcement planning. show a repeated-play ultimatum game, ABC who received...
