  1. 01HumanSystematic reviewMechanism

    In a systematic review of human studies, intranasal oxytocin appeared to modulate resting state functional connectivity, similar to its effects on task fMRI.

    In plain wordsA review of human studies found that nasal oxytocin appears to change brain connectivity at rest, much as it does during tasks.

  2. 02HumanSystematic reviewOther

    In a systematic review, age, sex, early life stress and psychopathology emerged as potential moderators of intranasal oxytocin effects on resting state connectivity.

    In plain wordsA review of human studies found that age, sex, early life stress and mental health may change how nasal oxytocin affects the brain.
