Resumen
El principal objetivo del presente trabajo es el de comprobar la implicación que tiene el consumo de drogas de abuso en la corteza insular, a través de la revisión de diferentes estudios. Para comprobar estas implicaciones, se ha realizado una revisión sistemática de diferentes artículos, en tres bases de datos distintas: Medline, PubMed y WOS (Web of Science), sin restricción en la fecha de inicio hasta el máximo de 2018 tanto en inglés como es español y en los casos en los que fuera posible se ha dado preferencia a aquellos artículos en los que se trabajase con humanos, seleccionando un total de catorce artículos con los que se ha realizado este trabajo. Los estudios revisados acerca de la relación entre la ínsula y las drogas de abuso, arrojan resultados favorables en cuanto a que existe una relación entre el consumo de dichas drogas y la activación de zonas específicas dentro del área insular.
The main objective of this work is to verify the implications of drug use on the insular cortex by reviewing different studies. To verify these implications, a systematic review of different articles was conducted in three different databases: Medline, PubMed, and WOS (Web of Science). The review was conducted in both English and Spanish, with no restriction on the starting date, up to a maximum of 2018. Whenever possible, preference was given to articles that involved humans, selecting a total of fourteen articles for this study. The reviewed studies on the relationship between the insula and drugs of abuse yield favorable results in that there is a relationship between the use of these drugs and the activation of specific areas within the insular area.
