Distinct Subdivisions of the Cingulo-Insular Region and Their Role in Modulating the Cardiac Sympathetic-Parasympathetic Balance
Within the cingulo-insular region, the anterior cingulate gyrus is associated with a relative cardio-parasympathetic dominance, while the posterior insula is linked to a relative cardio-sympathetic dominance. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the neural modulation of cardio-autonomic balance, and may have implications for the prevention and treatment of cardio-autonomic dysfunction in neurological disorders.
