Atypical cross talk between mentalizing and mirror neuron networks in autism spectrum disorder - PubMed (original) (raw)

Results of the within-group (autism spectrum disorder [ASD], typically developing [TD]; P < .05, corrected) analyses obtained for each MNS and ToM seed (top and bottom panels, respectively) are presented in a conjunction view. Seed regions of interest are presented on the axial slices on the left (red dots reflect the actual size of the spherical regions of interest). Inflated maps were generated using Surface Mapping with Analysis of Functional NeuroImages (SUMA,

). L indicates left; laIPS, left anterior intraparietal sulcus (Talairach coordinates −40, −40, 45); lpSTS, left posterior superior temporal sulcus (−50, −55, 10); lPMC, left premotor cortex (−40, 5, 40); lTPJ, left temporal-parietal junction (−50, −55, 25); mPFC, medial prefrontal cortex (0, 50, 20); PC, precuneus; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex (0, −60, 40); R, right; raIPS, right anterior intraparietal sulcus (40, −40, 45); rpSTS, right posterior superior temporal sulcus (50, −55, 10); rPMC, right premotor cortex (40, 5, 40); and rTPJ, right temporal-parietal junction (50, −55, 25).
