White matter microstructure in opiate addiction

Addiction Biology, 2012
Heroin addiction has been associated with impaired neuronal connectivity and cognitive deficits. One mechanism that potentially explains these findings is alterations in white matter connectivity secondary to chronic opiate use. However, few studies have

Sex versus Gender Role Endorsement Associations With White Matter Microstructure in South African Adults: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging Study [PDF]

Brain and Behavior
Background Brain structure in transgender individuals is often shifted away from their natal sex toward their preferred gender identity. However, little is known about the relationship between gender identity and white matter microstructure in the ...

White matter matters: a multimodal approach to investigate white matter microstructure and metabolism

, 2014
White matter connects different brain areas and applies electrical insulation to the neuron’s axons with myelin sheaths in order to enable quick signal transmission.

Physical Activity Increases White Matter Microstructure in Children [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Children are becoming increasingly inactive, unfit, and overweight, yet there is relatively little causal evidence regarding the effects of physical activity on brain health during childhood.

White matter microstructure alterations in early psychosis and schizophrenia. [PDF]

Transl Psychiatry
Abstract Studies on schizophrenia feature diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) to investigate white matter (WM) anomalies. The heterogeneity in the possible interpretations of typical Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) metrics highlights the importance of increasing their specificity.

White matter abnormalities in major depression: a tract-based spatial statistics and rumination study.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Increasing evidence indicates that major depressive disorder (MDD) is usually accompanied by altered white matter in the prefrontal cortex, the parietal lobe and the limbic system.

Genome-wide association study of cerebellar white matter microstructure and genetic overlap with common brain disorders

NeuroImage, 2023
Background: The cerebellum is recognized as being involved in neurocognitive and motor functions with communication with extra-cerebellar regions relying on the white matter integrity of the cerebellar peduncles.

White matter microstructure and verbal fluency

Brain Structure and Function, 2022
AbstractPoor performance on verbal fluency tasks is associated with an increased risk of post-stroke cognitive impairment. Grey matter regions supporting verbal fluency have been identified via lesion–symptom mapping, but the links between verbal fluency and white matter structure remain less well described.
