“…Brain activity under the corresponding no-abdominal muscle-contraction task was used as a baseline to analyze the cortical activities specific to abdominal muscle contractions in these two different states.ResultsAbdominal muscle contractions during the strong desire to urinate primarily activated the bilateral pre-motor/supplementary motor area (BA6), bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (BA9/46), bilateral frontal pole area (BA10), the anterior portion of the right inferior frontal gyrus (BA47), the right middle temporal gyrus (BA21), the right primary motor cortex (BA4), and the left primary somatosensory cortex (BA1/2/3) in conjunction with the left inferior frontal of pars triangularis
Broca's area (BA45) (<italic>P</italic><0.05). In contrast, abdominal muscle contractions with no desire to urinate primarily activated the bilateral pre-motor/supplementary motor area (BA6) (<italic>P</italic><0.05), the right primary motor cortex (BA4), the right primary somatosensory cortex (BA1/2/3), the right inferior frontal of pars triangularis
Broca's area (BA45), and the right supramarginal gyrus part of Wernicke's area (BA40) (<italic>P</italic><0.05). …”
