“…Adults with a history of childhood trauma display reduced grey matter in frontal and limbic networks (Calem et al, 2017; Frodl et al, 2017; Lim et al, 2014b; Paquola et al, 2016; Pollak et al, 2022; Tymofiyeva et al, 2022; Yang et al, 2023), a pattern which is also observed in psychosis patients ( Kim et al, 2015 , Picó-Pérez et al, 2022 , Shepherd et al, 2012 , van Erp et al, 2018 ). Additionally, there is some evidence of increased basal ganglia volume, which may be relevant to psychosis ( Holz et al, 2023b , Merritt et al, 2023a , Popovic et al, 2020 ). These neurodevelopmental abnormalities can increase the sensitivity of the dopaminergic system, particularly in response to stress ( Egerton et al, 2017 , Egerton et al, 2016 ).…”
