And after even more practice, the left
superior temporal gyrus takes over major math tasks, Ansari suspects.
Neurons in the
superior temporal gyrus responded to all vowels, although at different rates of firing.
It may be that the deficit in dyslexia is primarily due to a failure in developing accurate and stable systems for orthographic representations in fusiform gyrus and phonologic representations in the
superior temporal gyrus or a failure in mapping between these systems through integration in the tempo-parietal region.
The lateral surface of the temporal lobe is divided into four regions which help define its borders: the
superior temporal gyrus, the middle temporal gyrus, the inferior temporal gyrus and the transverse temporal gyrus.
Compared to the controls, the dancers showed significantly higher ALFF in the left middle temporal gyrus, bilateral precentral gyrus, bilateral inferior frontal gyrus, left postcentral gyrus, left inferior temporal gyrus, right middle occipital gyrus, right
superior temporal gyrus, and left middle frontal gyrus, and less ALFF in left lingual gyrus (Table 2, Figure 1).
Other related studies also showed that brain structure GMV reduction in the left Heschl gyrus and left
superior temporal gyrus is significantly different in patients with schizophrenia [18].
Left
superior temporal gyrus activation during sentence perception negatively correlates with auditory hallucination severity in schizophrenia patients.
The scientists at the University of California, Berkeley have succeeded in decoding electrical activity in a region of the human auditory system called the
superior temporal gyrus (STG).
Those with a greater burden of neurologic symptoms also showed reduced volumes of the basal ganglia, the
superior temporal gyrus, and several other structures involved with processing and integrating sensory input.
