The neurobiological mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of meditation therapy in patients with schizophrenia remain poorly understood, therefore, we aim to investigate the relationship between clinical symptoms and the structural changes in brain gray matter in a meditation intervention trial. Han inpatients with schizophrenia admitted to the Shanghai First Civil Affairs Mental Health...
