NCT ID NCT06665074
Summary
This study aims to understand if a temporary, mild inflammatory response in the body can directly increase feelings of anger and aggressive behavior. Researchers will compare 45 adults with a history of frequent, problematic impulsive aggression (Intermittent Explosive Disorder) to 45 similar adults without this history. On separate days, participants will receive a low-dose substance that causes brief inflammation or a placebo, then complete behavioral tests, questionnaires, and brain scans to measure their responses.
