Comparison of mean percent signal change in ventral emotional regions corresponding to combat, non-combat, and scrambled distractors displayed during the active maintenance period of working memory in the PTSD (n = 22) and control (n = 20) groups. Activation in the was greater for combat than non-combat distractors in the PTSD group but not in the control group in the (a) amygdala (AMG) (b) ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (vlPFC), and (c) the fusiform gyrus (FFG). (d) Mean percent signal change for the entire trial epoch by condition in the vlPFC for the control group and the PTSD group.
