Results: Higher symptoms of FA correlated with greater changes in ventral caudate-hippocampus connectivity between fasted and fed conditions. FA symptoms did not correlate with connectivity in the dorsal caudate circuit. Post-hoc analyses revealed that participants with higher symptoms of FA had ventral caudate-hippocampus hyperconnectivity in the fasted scan only, as well as a significant reduction of this connectivity between the fasted and fed scans. Conclusions: Heightened connectivity in the ventral striatum during a fasted state, which has been linked to reward prediction signals, underpins symptoms of FA. In contrast, connectivity in the dorsal striatum or "habit" system is unrelated to homeostatic status and FA symptoms, and is thus less relevant for subclinical manifestations of FA.]]> Tue 21 Feb 2023 12:23:55 AEDT ]]> Treating addiction: a guide for professionals https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15893 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:22:51 AEDT ]]>
