Journal ArticleDOI

Risky decision making, prefrontal cortex, and mesocorticolimbic functional connectivity in methamphetamine dependence.

TL;DR: Maladaptive decision making by methamphetamine users may reflect circuit-level dysfunction, underlying deficits in task-based activation, and Heightened resting-state connectivity within the mesocorticolimbic system, coupled with reduced prefrontal cortical connectivity, may create a bias toward reward-driven behavior over cognitive control in methamphetamine users.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavioral predictors of substance-use initiation in adolescents with and without attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

TL;DR: This 4-year longitudinal study captured the onset of substance use, not abuse, in healthy adolescents and in adolescents who have been diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphine-induced metabolic changes in human brain. Studies with positron emission tomography and [fluorine 18]fluorodeoxyglucose.

TL;DR: Morphine sulfate effects (30 mg, intramuscularly) on cerebral glucose utilization and subjective self-reports were examined in 12 polydrug abusers by positron emission tomography and [fluorine 18]fluorodeoxyglucose in a double-blind placebo-controlled crossover study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid effects of brief intensive cognitive-behavioral therapy on brain glucose metabolism in obsessive-compulsive disorder

TL;DR: Compared to controls, OCD patients showed significant bilateral decreases in normalized thalamic metabolism with intensive CBT but had a significant increase in right dorsal anterior cingulate cortex activity that correlated strongly with the degree of improvement in OCD symptoms, which improved robustly with treatment.
