Sentence examples for insular surface from inspiring English sources
In sum, we did not find any evidence that subjects with right (or even bilateral) hemispheric language organization also have rightward insular surface asymmetry.
Examining the spatial location of this trajectory on the insular surface revealed that these extremes were located in the anterior dorsal and ventral insula and in the dorsal and posterior part of the long insular gyri, respectively.
Having the possibility to investigate these relationships further, we examined whether these effects were driven by hemispheric differences in the extent of insular surface rather than the thickness of its cortex.
Finally, insular surface asymmetries showed significant correlations with the functional asymmetries of activity for gesture and language in the insula itself (r13 = 0.49, P = 0.033; r13 = 0.47, P = 0.038; respectively, one-tailed).
Here, we also corroborate that the left-sided asymmetry of the insular surface, as well as the asymmetry of its volume, correlates well with the lateralization of language (i.e. verbal fluency).
All in all, only the insular surface exhibited significant leftward asymmetry in both analyses (mean LI for structural ROI = 5.91, SD = 3.02; a significant difference in cluster size = 0.05 > P > 0.01 for vertex-wise analysis in favour of the left side).
Results of this analysis are shown in Figure 6A, overlaid onto the insular surfaces of the single-subject MNI template.
Although we observed significant correlations between insular volume or surface asymmetries and functional lateralization of gesture and language, correlations never imply causation.
Yet, by simultaneous examination of both structural and functional differences between the two hemispheres, we considerably extend their conclusions by linking such insular volume and surface asymmetries to the functional organization of gesture, and language.
But once in a while discontent bubbles to the surface and insular startup ecosystems start arguing – and accusing.
Schrimm, M., Buscail, R. & Adjeroud, M. Spatial variability of the biogeochemical composition of surface sediments in an insular coral reef ecosystem: Moorea, French Polynesia.
