Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how both short-term (acute) and long-term (chronic) alcohol exposure affects the structure of neurons in the brain, specifically looking at neurite density.
- Using advanced imaging techniques, including neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI), researchers compared effects in healthy social drinkers versus individuals with alcohol use disorder.
- The findings reveal significant differences in various parameters related to white matter in the brain, particularly in the corpus callosum, suggesting that even short-term alcohol infusion can alter brain properties that were previously thought to be unaffected by immediate changes in substance intake.
