Furthermore, according to other researchers, " Correlation analyses revealed that gray matter thickness in left ventromedial PFC was inversely correlated with task-related activation in the amygdala.

The neural regions involved in the sneeze reflex are located in the brainstem along the ventromedial part of the spinal trigeminal nucleus and the adjacent pontine-medullary lateral reticular formation.
43.
Several brain structures, including the anterior cingulate cortex ( ACC ), orbitofrontal cortex and the overlapping ventromedial prefrontal cortex are believed to be involved in decision-making processes.
44.
In another test, patients with ventromedial prefrontal cortex ( VM ) dysfunction were shown to choose outcomes that yield high immediate gains in spite of higher losses in the future.
45.
Studies of clinical populations, including patients with VMPC ( ventromedial prefrontal cortex ) damage, reveal an association between impairments in emotional processing and impairments in moral judgement and behavior.
46.
3 . "'Glucostatic hypothesis "'- The activity of satiety center in the ventromedial nuclei probably governed by the Glucose utilization in the neurons of it.
47.
During estrus, the estrogen hormone, estradiol, regulates sexual receptivity by the neurons in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus, the periaqueductal gray, and other areas of the brain.
48.
This experiment has been used to analyze the impairments suffered by people with damage to the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, which has been known to affect neural signaling of prospective rewards or punishments.
49.
However, one review found that the amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex remained relatively free of atrophy, which is consistent with the finding of emotional stability occurring with non-pathological aging.
50.
Viewing social interactions elicited activity in brain regions associated with identifying faces and biological objects ( posterior temporal cortex ), as well as emotion processing ( right amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex ).
