Resting-State Functional Connectivity of the Anterior Cingulate Cortex Among Persons With Mood Disorders and Suicidal Behaviors
CONCLUSIONS: A history of suicidal behavior among individuals with major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder was associated with altered rsFC of the rostral and caudal ACC, regions involved in conflict detection and error monitoring. Replication of these findings is needed to further explore the involvement of the ACC in the neurobiology of suicidal behavior and suicidal ideation.PMID:37981779 | DOI:10.1176/appi.neuropsych.20220203 (Source: Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences)
