Traumatic brain injury in adolescence: A review of the neurobiological and behavioural underpinnings and outcomes
2021, Developmental ReviewCitation Excerpt :However, there is significant individual variation in the age at the onset of puberty, which in turn establishes individual variation in the timing of when the adolescent brain is exposed to the gonadal steroid hormones, which consequently produces individual variation in behavioural maturation and the trajectory of development (Sisk & Zehr, 2005). For example, early puberty onset in humans is a significant risk factor for the development of several psychopathologies, including depression and eating disorders (Ge, Conger, & Elder Jr, 2001; Kaltiala-Heino, Marttunen, Rantanen, & Rimpelä, 2003; Kaltiala-Heino, Rimpel, Rissanen, & Rantanen, 2001; Keel, Fulkerson, & Leon, 1997; Koff & Rierdan, 1993; Sisk & Zehr, 2005; Stice, Presnell, & Bearman, 2001). Using comparisons between subjects that suffer from disorders that reduce gonadal hormone production during puberty and healthy control subjects, it has been shown that the absence of pubertal steroids during the adolescent developmental stage impairs spatial cognition into adulthood (Hier & Crowley Jr, 1982; Sisk & Zehr, 2005).
Strain and sex differences in puberty onset and the effects of THC administration on weight gain and brain volumes
2015, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :For example, extensive synaptic modifications between the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and amygdala all occur during the post-pubertal period, areas which are centrally involved in the expression and regulation of anxiety, and manipulations during the pubertal period can have long-term consequences on anxiety in male and female rats (Brand and Slob, 1988; Primus and Kellogg, 1990). Indeed, changes in puberty onset in humans have been associated with improvements in nutrition, as well as an increased risk for depression and anxiety (Koff and Rierdan, 1993; Ge et al., 2001; Stice et al., 2001; Kaltiala-Heino et al., 2003). Given the highly plastic nature of the brain and behavior during the period post-puberty onset and the concordant high levels of marijuana use among adolescents and their increased risk for long-term negative consequences, it is important to understand the short- and long-term effects of exposure to the main psychoactive component of marijuana, THC, on brain and behavior, with a specific focus on areas that are modified during the adolescent period, including the hippocampus, amygdala and prefrontal cortex.

2010, Journal of Sexual MedicineCitation Excerpt :Only for BED patients, EDE-Q shape concern was found to be a significant determinant of different aspects of sexual dysfunction (arousal, lubrication, and orgasm). It is well known that body image disturbances are relevant psychopathological features for patients with EDs [6], and that sexual problems have been described as relevant issues affecting eating disordered subjects [28,29]. Body image concerns can interfere with the enjoyment of a situation that involves a focus on the body [30].
