The paper proposes the amygdala burnout hypothesis, showing early-life stress leads to initial amygdala volume increases in adolescence followed by reductions in older age across rodents and humans.

This study shows that morphine self-administration in rats leads to cerebellar structural changes and altered functional connectivity, associated with disrupted goal-directed behavior and increased motivation.

This study uses diffusion MRI tractometry to identify localized white matter microstructural changes associated with stimulant misuse, finding distinct patterns for amphetamine use compared to cocaine use.

This study finds that cocaine use disorder is linked to reduced brain state transition energy in specific networks, particularly those involved in excitatory and higher-order functions.

The paper identifies sgACC functional connectivity abnormalities in depression using large-scale brain imaging data and develops an individualized TMS targeting algorithm to improve treatment outcomes.

This study uses a latent class linear mixed model to better classify high and low alcohol consumers in rats, showing improved accuracy compared to traditional methods.

This study compares symptom networks and brain characteristics between first and recurrent Major Depressive Disorder episodes using a network approach, finding differences in symptom centrality and global network strength.

This study examines the combined effects of chronic stress and ethanol intake on brain structure, function, and behavior in rats, finding sex-dependent impacts on brain volume and connectivity.

This study examines how dopamine dysregulation in Parkinson's disease affects the pleasurable urge to move to musical rhythms, finding a flattened response in patients compared to controls.

This paper describes a method for constructing and using MRI-compatible carbon fiber electrodes in rats to study neuromodulation effects on alcohol use disorder.

The paper investigates brain dynamics during distrust anticipation from partners with different social closeness levels using fMRI, finding AIns activity for human partners but not for high vs low closeness partners, and increased coupling with mentalizing networks during high closeness trust anticipation.

The paper creates an MRI atlas of the juvenile axolotl brain, including ROIs, embryological divisions, and myelin regions, providing a resource for future research.

The paper presents a subcortical atlas for rhesus macaques, SARM, aligned to a population template, and validates it with fMRI data.

This study conducts a meta-analysis of VBM studies to identify gray and white matter morphology changes in substance use disorders, finding both convergent and divergent effects based on substance type and consumption severity.

This study finds that psychotherapists have greater cortical thickness in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which correlates with their empathic concern.

The paper introduces PRIME-RE, a collaborative platform for sharing NHP neuroimaging resources, tools, and data.

This study investigates the neural correlates of music-induced analgesia in fibromyalgia patients using resting-state fMRI and finds lateralized changes in functional connectivity associated with pain reduction.

This study examines how childhood maltreatment affects social cognition and brain connectivity in borderline personality disorder patients compared to healthy controls.

The paper investigates cortical thinning and striatum morphology in cocaine addiction using neuroimaging data and finds correlations between striatum volume and cortical thickness in healthy controls not observed in addicts.

This study examines impulsivity, emotional dysregulation, and amygdala functional connectivity in individuals with dual pathology of borderline personality disorder and cocaine dependence.

This study uses MRI and diffusion kurtosis imaging to examine morphological and microstructural changes in the striatum and thalamus of individuals with crack cocaine addiction compared to controls, while considering age and cocaine use duration.

Pooling 14 randomised trials, music lowered self-reported chronic pain and depression, and the effect was larger when patients chose the music rather than the researchers.
