However, more recent study suggested that large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma should be separated from atypical carcinoid as a distinct entity because of their much greater aggressive potential [ 7].
Greater aggressive behavior was associated with reduced cortical thickness of the left precentral ROI and the right postcentral ROI, β = -.13, p =.005 and β = −.15, p =.001 respectively (Table 3).

To determine whether diminished right ltOFC activation was associated with greater reactive aggressive tendencies, as the OFC-amygdala regulatory model would predict, we correlated right ltOFC response magnitudes with individual assessments of reactive aggressive tendencies, scaled using a modified form of the Buss-Perry aggression questionnaire (BPAQ) [15].
There was a significant negative correlation between the peak signal change of each subject's average right ltOFC response during the violent stimuli and his/her BPAQ-RA score (r = −0.69, p = 0.009, Figure 3A); thus, smaller responses in right ltOFC were characteristic of those individuals with greater reactive aggressive tendencies.
