摘要
The authors examined the relationship between unawareness of illness and eight frontal lobe subregions in 15 patients with schizophrenia. Significant inverse correlations were seen between unawareness and bilateral middle frontal gyrus volume and between symptom misattribution and superior frontal gyrus volume.
