NCT ID NCT06261905

Summary

This Yale University study used brain imaging to understand how vitamin D might affect brain chemistry in people with opioid use disorder. Researchers compared brain scans from a small group of participants with the disorder to healthy volunteers after giving them either vitamin D or a placebo. The goal was to gather basic knowledge about potential mechanisms, not to provide direct treatment.
