Enhanced brain network flexibility by physical exercise in female methamphetamine users.

ABSTRACT: Methamphetamine (MA) abuse is increasing worldwide, and evidence indicates that MA causes degraded cognitive functions such as executive function, attention, and flexibility. Recent studies have shown that regular physical exercise can ameliorate the disturbed functions. However, the potential functional network alterations resulting from physical exercise have not been extensively studied in female MA users. We collaborated with a drug rehabilitation center for this study to investigate changes in brain activity and network dynamics after two types of acute and long-term exercise interventions based on 64-channel electroencephalogram recordings of seventy-nine female MA users, who were randomly divided into three groups: control group (CG), dancing group (DG) and bicycling group (BG).
