The human cortex responds to an interoceptive challenge
Open accessAbstract
Fast, low-cost, accurate detection of time-resolved dynamic nucleic acid conformational variation in response to small molecule binding: 1) enriches our understanding of nucleic acid structure, and regulation of structure by small molecules as ...Nucleic acids can undergo conformational changes upon binding small molecules. These conformational changes can be exploited to develop new therapeutic strategies through control of gene expression or triggering of cellular responses and can also be used ...

AIC and ACC are commonly coactivated in many experimental tasks and at rest.
“In line with our meta-analysis on empathy studies, it has been commonly demonstrated that AIC and ACC are coactivated in various experimental paradigms (Critchley, 2004; Dosenbach et al., 2006; Craig, 2009; Medford and Critchley, 2010; Fan et al., 2011) as well as in resting states (Seeley et al., 2007; Britz et al., 2010; Cauda et al., 2011; Fan et al., 2012).”
From Anterior insular cortex and emotional awareness (2013) · cites this paper as Critchley, 2004
The Anterior Cingulate Cortex section says ACC activity is enhanced in many challenging tasks, supporting the claim’s breadth of ACC activation. It does not establish common coactivation with anterior insula; the Insula and Context section notes that insula activity did not reach significance in the hypoglycemia study it discusses. The resting-state clause cites other papers, not Critchley (2004). (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe insular cortex works closely with a network of regions including ACC, somatosensory cortex, and amygdala.
“It is noteworthy that the insular cortex works closely with a network of regions, including the ACC (Critchley, 2004; Critchley et al., 2004; Medford and Critchley, 2010; Fan et al., 2011; Denny et al., 2012; Lindquist et al., 2012), somatosensory cortex (Gu et al., 2013), and amygdala (Etkin and Wager, 2007).”

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.
