Disrupted amygdala-prefrontal functional connectivity in civilian women with posttraumatic stress disorder

TLDR
This is the first study to show that the amygdala response may be accompanied by disruption of an amygdala-vmPFC functional circuit that is hypothesized to be involved in prefrontal cortical regulation of amygdala responsivity.

A pilot study of closed-loop neuromodulation for treatment-resistant post-traumatic stress disorder

TL;DR: In this article , a first-of-its-kind pilot study, the authors recorded intracranial electroencephalographic data longitudinally (over one year) in two male individuals with amygdala electrodes implanted for the management of treatment-resistant PTSD under clinical trial NCT04152993.

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: From Neurobiology to Cycles of Violence

TL;DR: It is shown how pervasive childhood and adult trauma increase risk for PTSD and associated substance abuse, depression, and aggression symptoms, contributing to cycles of violence and trauma-related disorders in at-risk communities.

Blood-derived DNA methylation clusters associate with adverse social exposures and endophenotypes of stress-related psychiatric illness in a trauma-exposed cohort of women

TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the associations of childhood trauma burden (CTQ), adult trauma burden, low income and low education with blood-derived 5mC clusters and variability in brain region measurements in the amygdala, hippocampus and frontal cortex subregions.

Lifetime Prevalence and Age-of-Onset Distributions of DSM-IV Disorders in the National Comorbidity Survey Replication

TL;DR: Lifetime prevalence estimates are higher in recent cohorts than in earlier cohorts and have fairly stable intercohort differences across the life course that vary in substantively plausible ways among sociodemographic subgroups.

Meta-analysis of risk factors for posttraumatic stress disorder in trauma-exposed adults.

TL;DR: The effect size of all the risk factors was modest, but factors operating during or after the trauma, such as trauma severity, lack of social support, and additional life stress, had somewhat stronger effects than pretrauma factors.

A new SPM toolbox for combining probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and functional imaging data

TL;DR: A new, MATLAB based toolbox for the SPM2 software package is introduced which enables the integration of probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and results of functional imaging studies and an easy-to-use tool for the integrated analysis of functional and anatomical data in a common reference space.

Deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression.

TL;DR: It is suggested that disrupting focal pathological activity in limbic-cortical circuits using electrical stimulation of the subgenual cingulate white matter can effectively reverse symptoms in otherwise treatment-resistant depression.
