Romantic breakups linked to lower hippocampal brain volume in adults with childhood trauma
Childhood maltreatment alone showed no effect on hippocampal size, but individuals with maltreatment and a romantic breakup had smaller hippocampal volumes, highlighting how later-life stress can exacerbate early trauma's impact on brain structure.

Individuals with thicker insula brain region take more cocaine when given a chance, study finds
Individuals with thicker insulae and higher caudate gray matter volumes administered more cocaine, with women self-administering more than men. Results suggest links between brain structure and compulsive drug use behaviors.
