耶鲁研究发现,类阿片成瘾会改变特定区域的大脑数量和连通性。 Yale study finds opioid addiction alters brain volumes and connectivity in specific regions.
发表在"放射学"上的一项耶鲁大学研究显示, 患有阿片类药物使用障碍的人群会出现特定的大脑变化, 包括大脑体积的变化和关键区域的连接性增加. A Yale study published in Radiology reveals that individuals with opioid use disorder exhibit specific brain changes, including altered volumes and increased connectivity in key regions. 研究人员使用磁共振扫描法,将类阿片成瘾的103人与105名非成人类阿片成瘾者作了比较,发现Telamus、右中间叶、脑叶、小脑叶和脑细胞有差异。 Using MRI scans, researchers compared 103 people with opioid addiction to 105 non-addicts, finding differences in the thalamus, right medial temporal lobe, cerebellum, and brainstem. 研究还注意到脑部改变方面的性别差异,建议有必要进一步研究这些变化如何影响行为,以及能否通过治疗扭转这些变化。 The study also noted sex differences in brain alterations, suggesting a need for further research into how these changes influence behavior and whether they can be reversed with treatment.
