Cardiac interoception is important for health and can be assessed in terms of accuracy (IAcc) sensibility (IS), at least. While IAcc measures the correspondence between recorded perceived heartbeats, IS means confidence interoceptive perceptions during task. The present study investigated if brain activity heartbeat tracking task associated with as well IS. Specifically, we were interested task-related power (TRP) alpha band (8-12 Hz), known to indicate task-specific cognitive functions such semantic, attentional, sensory processes, IS, respectively. In a sample 30 participants, found relatively higher TRP over left temporal parietal areas (vs. right) Furthermore, observed negative association Lower might that more pronounced processes are linked positive effect (independent from IS), which internal attention beneficial IAcc. We further discuss findings context methodological issues Taken together, pattern favors investigation (i.e., ratings) combination gain better access improve our understanding neural underpinnings (cardiac) interoception.

ABSTRACT Interoception is the perception of one's internal physiological state. Altered interoception may play a role in pathogenesis attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We reviewed literature on and ADHD symptoms (inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity, executive function, emotional dysregulation) individuals with without disorder. Studies included assessments (1) with/without diagnoses or (2) general population. objective measures (heartbeat‐tracking test) self‐report questionnaires. The search PubMed/MEDLINE, PsychINFO, CINAHL Scopus databases. A protocol was prospectively registered PROSPERO database (CRD #42022351726); PRISMA guidelines directed reporting. Newcastle–Ottawa scale adapted to evaluate study quality. Of 636 articles identified, 17 (based 18 studies) met inclusion criteria. Five studies compared participants ADHD, three found that reduced ADHD. One between presentations finding no differences. Twelve assessed association Overall, results suggested who reported higher inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity, dysregulation, dysfunction. were moderate quality; issues small sample sizes inadequate Individuals have decreased without. negatively associated Interventions focused improving interoceptive abilities provide an avenue for treatment. Future work should consider culture interoception.

Theoretical models propose that interoception plays a role in addictive disorder. However, this assumption has been mostly tested using the heartbeat counting task (HCT), which is known to be contaminated by estimation strategies. An adapted version of HCT (in respondents report only felt heartbeats) developed reduce biases. Here, we examined validity classical and versions samples presenting alcohol use disorders. We recruited clinical sample 48 patients with severe disorder (SAUD), matched 41 healthy controls (HC), subclinical 32 binge drinkers (BD), 30 HC. Participants performed HCT, time task. additionally assessed mental health variables theoretically related (alexithymia, anxiety, childhood trauma, depression emotion regulation). In all groups, scores were smaller than HCT. Patients SAUD, but not BD, showed lower controls, independently found no correlation between psychological constructs. Heartbeats reported during correlated seconds for SAUD HC, suggesting strategies perform The largely reduced performance version, association lack expected associations extend doubts on these tasks measuring interoceptive accuracy problematic consumption.

Anorexia nervosa (AN) and obesity (OB) lie on the two ends of broad spectrum extreme weight conditions (EWC). Both disorders entail constant risk to one's body integrity. Importantly, risk-taking is supported by internal signals, perception which typically distorted in EWC. In this study, we sought characterize EWC: (i) risky decision-making contrasting situations people process bodies or neutral objects (ii) relationship between interoceptive ability decision-making. a between-subject design, participants with AN restricting type, class 2 OB, groups matched healthy controls (HC) (total N = 160) were administered either Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART) modified version it using body-related stimulus as cue place balloon. Moreover, collected measure sensibility accuracy. Results showed that, when analysing global population continuum based BMI, propensity decreased function increased only for task involving stimulus. while HC toward correlated sensibility, such correlation was absent AN. Individuals opposite pole, mixed interaction interoception both tasks. These findings add one more tile understanding these complex pathologies EWC spectrum, opening up future differential rehabilitation scenarios.
