“…All identified studies reported increases in FA among adolescent/young adult smokers in comparison to control participants, and these were most frequently reported in regions of the corpus callosum (genu, body and splenium), internal capsules and superior longitudinal fasciculus (Jacobsen et al, 2007; Liao et al, 2011; van Ewijk et al, 2015; Yu et al, 2015).
