β¦ Synopsis
In our published manuscript "Gender Differences in Regional Cerebral Activity During Sadness" 9:226 -238 (2000), our aim was to investigate gender differences in regional cerebral activation using standardized mood induction probes. Subjective ratings of participants were evaluated. A correlation analysis was performed for the amygdala to determine the association between mood effect and cerebral activation for both groups, which was illustrated in Figure 4. The description of the axes was unfortunately switched by a technical error. However, the scatter plots and the regression lines are correct, and hence the interpretation of the figure remains unaffected. Also, the result and the discussion sections are not affected since the error is only confined to the graphic illustration. Included here is the corrected figure and legend.

Clinical and histopathological findings hint at regional differences in the brain's sensitivity to metabolic changes in cirrhosis. The aim of the present study was to examine regional differences in cerebral ammonia metabolism in patients with cirrhosis and grade 0-to-I hepatic encephalopathy (HE).
## Abstract The sternohyoid (SH) and geniohyoid (GH) are antagonist strap muscles that are active during a number of different behaviors, including sucking, intraoral transport, swallowing, breathing, and extension/flexion of the neck. Because these muscles have served different functions through t

The degree of cortical folding (GI) and the relation between sulci and borders of cyto-and receptorarchitectonically defined areas were analyzed in postmortem human brains. The GI reaches adult levels (with highest values in the association cortices) around birth and does not decrease during aging.
