This paper presents a comprehensive scoping review aimed to collate and summarize findings from clinical studies on neuroplastic changes induced by ECT. The review categorizes neuroplasticity into molecular, structural, and functional domains, offering a multilevel view of current research and its limitations. Molecular findings detail the varied responses of neurotrophic factors and neurotransmitters post-ECT, highlighting inconsistent evidence on their clinical relevance. Structural neuroplasticity is explored through changes in brain volume, cortical thickness, and white matter properties, presenting ECT as a potent stimulator of brain architecture alterations. Functional plasticity examines ECT's impact on brain function through diverse neuroimaging techniques, suggesting significant yet complex modifications in brain network connectivity and activity. The review emphasizes the multilevel nature of these neuroplasticity levels and their collective role in ECT's therapeutic outcomes. Methodological considerations—including sample size, patient heterogeneity, and variability in assessment timing—emerge as recurring themes in the literature, underscoring the need for more consistent and rigorous research designs. By outlining a cohesive framework of changes in neuroplasticity due to ECT, this review provides initial steps towards a deeper comprehension of ECT's mechanisms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106143"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143834478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this review, we argue that the inconsistency may be due to a lack of both conceptual and methodological precision in terms of how anxiety, cognitive control, and mindfulness are operationalized and assessed, and that this imprecision may be a critical source of study confounds and ambiguous outcomes. We unpack this argument by first decomposing anxiety, cognitive control, mindfulness, and relevant experimental paradigms into key dimensions in order to develop a non-unitary, multi-dimensional taxonomy of these constructs. Subsequently, we review and reinterpret the prior experimental literature, focusing on studies that examine the relationship between anxiety and cognitive control, mindfulness and cognitive control, and the three-way relationship between anxiety, mindfulness, and cognitive control. Across the reviewed studies, there was great variation in the dimensions being examined and the behavioral and/or neural measures employed; therefore, results were often mixed. Based on this review of literature, we propose a conceptually and methodologically precise framework from which to study the effects of mindfulness on cognitive control in anxiety. The framework theoretically aligns anxiety dimensions with specific mindfulness states and interventions, further suggesting how these will impact specific cognitive control dimensions (proactive, reactive). These can be assessed with experimental paradigms and associated behavioral and neural metrics to index the relevant dimensions with high precision. Novel experimental studies and tractable research designs are also proposed to rigorously test this theoretical framework.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106146"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143834480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To date, findings and implications from these studies have been inconsistent and difficult to interpret, likely due to methodological challenges related to study design and implementation. In particular, the existing literature has demonstrated sample processing concerns, differences in assay methods, limited selection of analytes, and sample selection biases, all of which may contribute to inconsistent results. We briefly review the field, discuss these and other challenges, and propose guidance for designing studies on inflammation among heavy-drinking human participants. We note that conducting such studies requires appreciable consideration and planning, and ideally should involve an interdisciplinary team of experts, including immunologists, physiologists, and technical experts in bioassays, alongside experts in the field of interest (e.g., AUD). We highlight the importance of considering participant selection, analyte selection, sample collection, sample handling and storage, and assay methods, and suggest that the field move towards standardization of procedures and reporting.

Long-term meditators, who have dedicated extensive time to their practice, present a unique opportunity to explore the effects of prolonged meditation training on the autonomic nervous system. Research has reported concomitant activation of both sympathetic (aroused) and parasympathetic (relaxed) branches of the autonomic nervous system during some forms of meditation, leading to the term ‘relaxed alertness.’ However, findings are not consistent, with reports of both sympathetic and parasympathetic activation, sympathetic-only, parasympathetic-only, or temporally variable activations, depending on several factors. This review synthesizes these heterogeneous and seemingly inconsistent results in relation to three explanatory factors: (1) specific classification of style or type of meditation; (2) specific definition of the level of expertise of the meditators; and (3) intra-individual variations within a given meditation practice. When these factors are considered, convergent and meaningful patterns emerge, allowing for a shift from the broad notion of 'long-term' meditation to a more precise characterization of 'advanced' meditation, highlighting skills, states, and stages of mastery developed over time. Our synthesis is particularly useful for understanding both long-term and advanced meditation, as it reveals specific heart rate variability patterns, including very low and low-frequency spectral power peaks, along with cardiac and respiratory coupling. Better characterization of the role of the autonomic nervous system in the context of advanced meditation promises to inform improved meditation training, including training assisted by technology, toward more impactful outcomes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106141"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143816002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the past two decades, there has been an increase in both clinical and experimental research on the role of IU in the maintenance and treatment of anxiety-related disorders. However, there has been a lack of integration of research findings from a mechanistic perspective, which has slowed progress in translational research. This review seeks to fill this gap by synthesising the clinical (e.g. randomised controlled trials) and experimental (e.g. lab-based) literature on the psychological mechanisms that drive change in IU across anxiety-related disorders. The review highlighted that: (1) cognitive restructuring, supported by mechanisms such as cognitive appraisal, modify IU-related cognitions, (2) behavioural exposures, supported by mechanisms such as inhibitory learning, alter IU-related cognitions and physiological arousal, and (3) mindfulness techniques underpinned by mechanisms such as attentional monitoring, decentering, and acceptance, change IU-related cognitions. Across the different therapeutic techniques reviewed, there was a lack of evidence for how different mechanisms change IU-related emotions and behaviours. Directions for further research include directly comparing the effectiveness of different mechanisms that produce change in IU across anxiety disorders and other mental health disorders, and examining the specificity of change in IU over other anxious traits. Overall, the findings provide a foundation for future translational research efforts to build upon maximising existing treatment interventions and/or to develop novel treatment interventions to target dispositional IU and situational uncertainty-related distress in anxiety-related disorders and beyond.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106138"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143821130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To connect neural and mental states, Neurophenomenology provides a methodological toolkit for systematically linking first-person subjective experience with third-person objective observations of the brain’s neural activity. However, beyond providing a systematic methodological strategy (‘disciplined circularity’), it leaves open how neural activity and subjective experience are related among themselves, independent of our methodological strategy. The recently introduced Spatiotemporal Neuroscience suggests that neural activity and subjective experience share a commonly underlying feature as their “common currency”, notably analogous spatiotemporal dynamics. Can Spatiotemporal Neuroscience inform Neurophenomenology to allow for a deeper and more substantiative connection of first-person experience and third-person neural activity? The goal of our paper is to show how Spatiotemporal Neuroscience and Neurophenomenology can be converged and integrated with each other to gain better understanding of the brain-mind connection. We describe their convergence on theoretical grounds which, subsequently, is illustrated by empirical examples like self, meditation, and depression. In conclusion, we propose that the integration of Neurophenomenology and Spatiotemporal Neuroscience can provide complementary insights, enrich both fields, allows for deeper understanding of brain-mind connection, and opens the door for developing novel methodological approaches in their empirical investigation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106139"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143828896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review illustrates how non-neuronal biology can bring new perspectives to animal welfare through understanding mechanisms that determine welfare outcomes and highlighting interventions to improve welfare. Most obvious in this respect is the largely unrecognised relevance of neuroinflammation to animal welfare which is increasingly found to have roles in determining how animals respond to challenges. We start by introducing non-neuronal cells and review their involvement in affective states and cognition often seen as core psychological elements of animal welfare. We find that the evidence for a causal involvement of glia in cognition is currently more advanced than the corresponding evidence for affective states. We propose that translational research on affective disorders could usefully apply welfare science derived approaches for assessing affective states. Using evidence from translational research, we illustrate the involvement of non-neuronal cells and neuroinflammatory processes as mechanisms modulating resilience to welfare challenges including disease, pain, and social stress. We review research on impoverished environments and environmental enrichment which suggests that environmental conditions which improve animal welfare also improve resilience to challenges through balancing pro- and anti-inflammatory non-neuronal processes. We speculate that non-neuronal biology has relevance to animal welfare beyond neuro-inflammation including facilitating positive affective states. We acknowledge the relevance of neuronal biology to animal welfare whilst proposing that non-neuronal biology provides additional and relevant insights to improve animals’ lives.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56105,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106136"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143789386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
