Background/objective: Source monitoring refers to the ability to determine the source of memories and encompasses three subprocesses: internal source monitoring, reality monitoring, and external source monitoring. Neuroimaging studies provide valuable insights about neural correlates of source monitoring, but the causal relationship between brain and behavior is lacking. This study aimed to identify brain circuits involved in source monitoring by synthesizing the effects of brain stimulation on source monitoring as a function of the targeted brain regions or circuits.

Background: Reality-monitoring process enables to discriminate memories of internally generated information from memories of externally derived information. Studies have reported impaired reality-monitoring abilities in schizophrenia patients with auditory hallucinations (AHs), specifically with an exacerbated externalization bias, as well as alterations in neural activity within frontotemporoparietal areas. In healthy subjects, impaired reality-monitoring abilities have been associated with reduction of the paracingulate sulcus (PCS).

The aim of this comparative retrospective short- and long-term study was to evaluate the interceptive treatment in Class III malocclusion in daily orthodontic practice. The sample was composed of 69 children divided into two groups according to the interceptive treatment applied: 31 children in group F (facial mask) and 38 in group M (interceptive fixed appliance). A Pancherz cephalometric analysis was carried out on the lateral head films at the start of the study (t(0), after the active treatment (t(1) and 29 months after t(1) (t(2).
