In reply to Ect And Neuroplasticity: Increased Hippocampal Syn, posted by ihatedrugs on October 8, 2011, at 3:02:46
> ECT is associated with neuroplasticity effects in the hippocampus. It stimulates neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus, and synaptogenesis in the CA1 area. Perforated and nonperforated spine synapses are both increased, as is synaptic height; these changes indicate greater synaptic efficiency.

This is an animal study. In my opinion, many times what occurs in animal studies doesn't work out in actual human ones.49er
