White matter in learning, cognition and psychiatric disorders. (2008, neutral): “White matter in cognition and mental illness A surprisingly diverse range of psychiatric and nervous system disorders are accompanied by changes in white matter structure or abnormalities in myelin genes (see Box 1). Polymorphisms for several myelin genes have emerged as unexpected risk factors for ”
