Topological features of functional brain networks and subclinical impulsivity: an investigation in younger and older adults.

Impulsive traits (i.e., the tendency to act without forethought regardless of negative outcomes) are frequently found in healthy populations.

When having a limb means feeling overcomplete. Xenomelia, the chronic sense of disownership and the right parietal lobe hypothesis.

Xenomelia is a rare condition characterized by a persistent and intense desire for amputation of one or more healthy limbs. Some frequent clinical manifestations suggest the involvement of distinct neural substrates. Specifically, recent aetiopathological hypotheses about xenomelia propose a neurodevelopmental origin, highlighting the putative contribution of the right parietal lobe and right insula, known to subserve the construction of a coherent representation of the body as a whole.
