Focal transcranial magnetic stimulation of the rat anterior cingulate cortex reduced relapse-like behavior and restored corticostriatal connectivity during opioid abstinence.

The paper identifies human striatal population states resembling canonical SPN states and shows their modulation by task demands, arousal, and behavior using fMRI data.

Focal transcranial magnetic stimulation of the medial prefrontal cortex prevents cocaine craving incubation and restores functional connectivity in a rat model of relapse.

The paper uses fMRI temporal-unwrapping to analyze corticostriatal communication timing, finding distinct temporal organization of node-pair coactivation patterns.

The paper identifies distinct misconfigurations of striatal connectivity profiles in smokers, revealing trait and state-specific alterations linked to nicotine dependence severity.

The paper identifies two smoker subgroups based on task performance during a cognitive challenge and shows only one subgroup exhibits attention deficits during nicotine abstinence.

The paper quantifies functional connectivity profile laterality in corticostriatal circuits, identifies laterality hotspots, and shows their predictive value for language task performance.

This study examines how nicotine dependence and acute nicotine stimulation affect attention and cognitive control using fMRI during Go-Nogo and Flanker tasks, finding modulations in attention but not cognitive control.

This study dissociates habenula activity linked with nicotine withdrawal from striatal activity linked with addiction severity using pharmacological fMRI.

The paper evaluates 15 candidate SNPs associated with psychiatric disorders using 6,165 diffusion MRI scans, finding no significant associations after correction for multiple testing.
