al [64] in a voxel-based morphometry study noted that extratemporal cortical abnormalities, in particular prominent parietal gray matter deficits occurred in patients with temporal epilepsy with psychosis. This evidence suggests that parietal dysfunction is not exclusive of the classic form of schizophrenia but may be also critical to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia-like disorders. It is noteworthy, however, that resting-state dysfuntion of the DMN, including the medial and lateral parietal cortex, can be seen in Alzheimeŕs disease, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and autism, which indicates that it may be a common feature of several chronic mental illnesses [65], [66].
