First, the PTSD which was caused by a very rare
accident, happened around 8:40 a.m. on July 29th, 2007.
A severe coalmine-flood disaster occurred at Zhijian
Coalmine in Shanxian County, about 200 km west of
Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province in central
China (USA Today News, 2007). Sixty-nine male miners
were trapped in a nearly 1400 m underground coal pit.
Fortunately, all of them were rescued after 75 hours of
the ordeal in the darkness, with no deaths and severe
body injuries. This study is the first evidence to find
the cortex thickness reduction by surface-based
morphometry based on such serious, sustained, direct,
high-intensity and acute trauma.
