DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2020.135144
Abstract: Dysfunctional social-emotional perception in patients with schizophrenia can result in adverse clinical symptoms and poorer long-term outcomes. The white matter tracts that interact among a number of brain regions have an important role to play.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0033291723000107
Abstract: Abstract Aberrant microstructure of the uncinate fasciculus (UNC), a white matter (WM) tract implicated in emotion regulation, has been hypothesized as a neurobiological mechanism of depression. However, studies testing this hypothesis have yielded inconsistent results.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/adb.13132
Abstract: Previous diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies had investigated the white matter (WM) integrity abnormalities in smokers. Exposure to nicotine disrupts neurodevelopment during adolescence, possibly by disrupting the trophic effects of acetylcholine. However, little is known… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/brainsci9120377
Abstract: Many studies have examined the relationship between cognition, and the cingulum and uncinate fasciculus (UF). In this study, diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) was used to investigate the correlation between fractional-anisotropy (FA) values and the number… read more here.
