Using resting-state functional alcoholic narcissistic mother MRI (fMRI), Liao al. investigated the functional connectivity between the thalamus and specific cortical regions in 40 chronic ketamine users with a mean use of 2 grams/day for 3.4 years, compared to 88 drug-free controls (Liao et al., 2016). Lower functional connectivity was found between the thalamus and the …
