OXT and post-traumatic stress disorder: In a study of 44 civilians with acute PTSD (n = 24 received oxytocin and n = 20 received a placebo) recruited early following trauma exposure (scanning session within 11 days post trauma) (Frijling et al., 2016), functional connectivity at rest between the (whole) amygdala and the left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex was weaker in response to a previously presented trauma‐related script compared to a neutral script following oxytocin administration, whereas this association was stronger in the placebo group.
