Previous studies showed that visual working memory
dependent on dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) was
impaired in adult rhesus macaques after neonatal
hippocampal lesions. To further explore the neuronal
substrates for the deficient working memory
performances, the integrity of the whole functional
network of dlPFC was examined by resting-state fMRI and
correlations were found between the functional
connectivity in the dlPFC network and the working memory
performances.
