A study from Hospital Clínic de Barcelona found that over half of women with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after a recent sexual assault show nearly complete disconnection between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex, key areas for regulating emotions and fear. The findings, presented at the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology conference in Amsterdam, suggest this alteration could serve as a biomarker to personalize treatments. Experts praise the research's solidity and relevance for sexual violence victims.
