Jun 5, 2024 · We found a significant deterioration of white-matter function across the whole brain and at specific brain areas mediating interhemispheric and corticothalamic communication in patients with chronic pain compared with controls.
Jun 13, 2024 · Brain scans of more than 2,000 preadolescents suggests that early life exposure to heat and cold may have lasting effects on the microstructure of white matter in the brain, especially when living in poorer neighbourhoods.
