Brain connectivity pattern predicts treatment response in cocaine use disorder
PsyPost · By Karina Petrova ·
The Brief
- Researchers identified a specific pattern of brain activity that distinguishes people with cocaine use disorder from those without the condition.
- The same brain activity pattern can also predict whether a person will respond well to a magnetic brain stimulation therapy.
- The source reports these findings from a PsyPost article; no further study details are provided.
Why it matters
A brain activity marker that separates people with cocaine use disorder and may predict response to magnetic brain stimulation could help researchers study who benefits from this treatment.
