Major depressive disorder (MDD) is known to be characterized by altered brain functional connectivity (FC) patterns. However, whether and how the features of dynamic FC would change in patients with MDD are unclear. In this study, we aimed characterize using a large multi-site sample novel network-based approach. Resting-state magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data were acquired from total 460 473 healthy controls, as part REST-meta-MDD consortium. networks constructed for each subject sliding-window Multiple spatio-temporal networks, including temporal variability, clustering efficiency, then compared between subjects at both global local levels. The group showed significantly higher lower correlation coefficient (indicating decreased clustering) shorter characteristic path length increased efficiency) controls (corrected p < 3.14×10−3). Corresponding changes mainly found default-mode, sensorimotor subcortical areas. Measures variability correlated depression severity 0.05). Moreover, observed between-group differences robustly present first-episode, drug-naïve (FEDN) non-FEDN patients. Our findings suggest that excessive variations FC, reflecting abnormal communications large-scale bran over time, may underlie neuropathology MDD.

These fundamental revealed only the tip of iceberg; over past decade, many test-retest reliability have continued add nuance our understanding this complex topic. A summary these diverse and at times contradictory perspectives is needed. We aimed summarize existing knowledge regarding most basic unit analysis: individual edge level.

The interpretability of results in psychiatric neuroimaging is significantly limited by an overreliance on correlational relationships. Purely studies cannot alone determine whether behavior-imaging relationships are causal to illness, functionally compensatory processes, or purely epiphenomena. Negative symptoms (e.g., anhedonia, amotivation, and expressive deficits) refractory current medications among the foremost causes disability schizophrenia. authors used a two-step approach identifying then empirically testing brain network model schizophrenia symptoms.In first cohort (N=44), data-driven resting-state functional connectivity analysis was identify with that corresponds negative symptom severity.

Abstract Concerns regarding reproducibility of resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R‐fMRI) findings have been raised. Little is known about how to operationally define R‐fMRI and what extent it affected by multiple comparison correction strategies sample size. We comprehensively assessed two aspects reproducibility, test–retest reliability replicability, on widely used metrics in both between‐subject contrasts sex differences within‐subject comparisons eyes‐open eyes‐closed (EOEC) conditions. noted permutation test with Threshold‐Free Cluster Enhancement (TFCE), a strict strategy, reached the best balance between family‐wise error rate (under 5%) reliability/replicability (e.g., 0.68 for 0.25 replicability amplitude low‐frequency fluctuations (ALFF) differences, 0.49 ALFF EOEC differences). Although indices attained moderate reliabilities, they replicated poorly distinct datasets (replicability < 0.3 0.5 By randomly drawing different sizes from single site, we found reliability, sensitivity positive predictive value (PPV) rose as size increased. Small 80 [40 per group]) not only minimized power (sensitivity 2%), but also decreased likelihood that significant results reflect “true” effects (PPV 0.26) differences.

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) studies have become increasingly popular both with clinicians and researchers as they are capable of providing unique insights into brain functions. However, multiple technical considerations (ranging from specifics paradigm design to imaging artifacts, complex protocol definition, multitude processing methods analysis, well intrinsic methodological limitations) must be considered addressed in order optimize fMRI analysis arrive at the most accurate grounded interpretation data. In practice, researcher/clinician choose, many available options, suitable software tool for each stage pipeline. Herein we provide a straightforward guide designed address, major stages, techniques, tools involved process.

Abstract Background Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with high risk of suicide. Conventional neuroimaging works showed abnormalities static brain activity and connectivity in MDD suicidal ideation (SI). However, little known regarding alterations dynamics. More broadly, it remains unclear whether temporal dynamics the could predict prognosis SI. Methods We included patients ( n = 48) without SI age-, gender-, education-matched healthy controls 30) who underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. first assessed dynamic amplitude low-frequency fluctuation (dALFF) – a proxy for intrinsic (iBA) using sliding-window analysis. Furthermore, variability (dynamics) iBA was quantified as variance dALFF over time. In addition, prediction severity from conducted general linear model. Results Compared SI, group decreased (less variability) dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, left orbital frontal inferior gyrus, hippocampus. Importantly, these variabilities be used to r 0.43, p 0.03), whereas ALFF not current data set. Conclusions These findings suggest that regions involved executive emotional processing are patients.

Abstract Background and Hypothesis Neuroimaging studies investigating the neural substrates of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) in schizophrenia have yielded mixed results, which may be reconciled by network localization. We sought to examine whether AVH-state AVH-trait brain alterations localize common or distinct networks. Study Design initially identified reported 48 previous studies. By integrating these affected locations with large-scale discovery validation resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging datasets, we then leveraged novel connectivity mapping construct dysfunctional Results The neuroanatomically heterogeneous localized specific comprised a broadly distributed set regions mainly involving auditory, salience, basal ganglia, language, sensorimotor Contrastingly, manifested as pattern circumscribed principally implicating caudate inferior frontal gyrus. Additionally, aligned neuromodulation targets for effective treatment AVH, indicating possible clinical relevance. Conclusions Apart from unifying seemingly irreproducible neuroimaging results across prior AVH studies, our findings suggest different mechanisms underlying state trait perspective more inform future AVH.
