Author(s): Shetiz Dahal*
Cannabis is one of the most widely used and commercialized illegal drugs worldwide, notably amid young adults. The neuro-biological mechanisms of cannabis, particularly in adolescents, have yet to be identified. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a cohort of 73 cannabis users (ages 22-36, 19 females) and his 73 healthy controls (ages 22-36, females). We observed some momentous differences in local structural/functional network measures (such as grade along with clustering coefficient), extended in the insular and anterior cranial cortices, and in the lateral/medial temporal cortex .An abundant structural network of clubs showed a normal tendency to distribute in the bilateral frontal, temporal, and occipital regions. The superior and inferior temporal gyri of the two groups did, however, show a few minor variations. Functionally rich clavate nodes were located primarily in the .. View More»
