Right-sided brain lesions predominate among patients with lesional mania
Barahona-Corrêa, J. Bernardo; Cotovio, Gonçalo; Costa, Rui M.; Ribeiro, Ricardo; Velosa, Ana; Silva, Vera Cruz e.; Sperber, ChristophDespite claims that lesional mania is associated with right-hemisphere lesions, supporting evidence is scarce, and association with specific brain areas has not been demonstrated. Here, we aimed to test whether focal brain lesions in lesional mania are more often right- than left-sided, and if lesions converge on areas relevant to mood regulation. We thus performed a systematic literature search (PROSPERO regis...
Mapping mania symptoms based on focal brain damage
Cotovio, Gonçalo; Talmasov, Daniel; Bernardo Barahona-Corrêa, J.; Hsu, Joey; Senova, Suhan; Ribeiro, Ricardo; Soussand, Louis; Velosa, AnaBACKGROUND. Although mania is characteristic of bipolar disorder, it can also occur following focal brain damage. Such cases may provide unique insight into brain regions responsible for mania symptoms and identify therapeutic targets. METHODS. Lesion locations associated with mania were identified using a systematic literature search (n = 41) and mapped onto a common brain atlas. The network of brain regions f...
