Balanced dopaminergic (DAergic) effects on parietal activation. (a) Statistical significance (t-score) maps for multiple linear regression (MLR) slopes demonstrating the linear associations across subjects between average non-displaceable binding potential (BPND) measures in caudate (CD) and ventral striatum (VS) and brain activation responses in the superior parietal cortex (SPC; red-yellow pattern) and precuneus (blue-green pattern) during visual attention for rested wakefulness (RW) and for sleep deprivation (SD; conjunction analysis), superimposed on three orthogonal views of the human brain. Significance threshold: PFWE<0.002, cluster corrected for multiple comparisons in the whole brain. (b) Scatter plots showing the linear associations between the predicted signals (BPNDVS and BPNDCD; see the 'Methods' section) in SPC and precuneus and the corresponding BPND measures in CD and VS. (c) BPND correlation matrix showing the Pearson correlation factors (R; computed across subjects) between average D2/D3R measures in VS, CD, putamen (PU) and globus pallidus (GP), for RW and for SD conditions. Sample size: 14 healthy, non-smoking, right-handed men. FWE, family-wise error; κ, condition number; VIF, variance inflation factor.
