Abstract

Although the human temporal polar cortex (TPC), anterior to the limen insulae, is heavily involved in high‐order brain functions and many neurological diseases, few studies on the parcellation and extent of the human TPC are available that have used modern neuroanatomical techniques. The present study investigated the TPC with combined analysis of several different cellular, neurochemical, and pathological markers and found that this area is not homogenous, as at least six different areas extend into the TPC, with another area being unique to the polar region. Specifically, perirhinal area 35 extends into the posterior TPC, whereas areas 36 and TE extend more anteriorly. Dorsolaterally, an area located anterior to the typical area TA or parabelt auditory cortex is distinguishable from area TA and is defined as area TAr (rostral). The polysensory cortical area located primarily in the dorsal bank of the superior temporal sulcus, separate from area TA, extends for some distance into the TPC and is defined as the TAp (polysensory). Anterior to the limen insulae and the temporal pyriform cortex, a cortical area, characterized by its olfactory fibers in layer Ia and lack of layer IV, was defined as the temporal insular cortex and named as area TI after Beck (J. Psychol. Neurol. 1934;41:129–264). Finally, a dysgranular TPC region that capped the tip with some extension into the dorsal aspect of the TPC is defined as temporopolar area TG. Therefore, the human TPC actually includes areas TAr and TI, anterior parts of areas 35, 36, TE, and TAp, and the unique temporopolar area TG. J. Comp.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • NeuN immunoreactivity was previously shown to anticorrelate with pTau pathology.

    “Immunoreactivity to neuronal nuclear protein (NeuN-ir) was previously shown to anticorrelate with pTau pathology42.”

    From Integrated multimodal cell atlas of Alzheimer’s disease (2024) · cites this paper as [42]

    The Methods (Double labeling; page unavailable) state that AT8 labels abnormally phosphorylated tau and that AT8-labeled cells would not be labeled by NeuN. This supports an inverse relationship at the cell-labeling level, but the paper does not report a quantitative anticorrelation between NeuN immunoreactivity and pTau pathology. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • The affective network, in which the amygdala and temporal poles have the largest region weights, is especially involved in linking emotion/mood to visceral function.

    “The affective network in which the amygdala and temporal poles exhibit the greatest region weights is particularly involved in the relationship of emotion/mood to visceral function (Ongu ¨r et al., 2003;Olson et al., 2007;Ding et al., 2009).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
