| Abstract/Results: | ABSTRACT:
Background
Neuroimaging studies of major depression have been typically conducted using group-level approaches. However, given interindividual differences in brain systems, there is a need for individualized approaches to brain systems mapping and putative links toward diagnosis, symptoms, and behavior.
Method
We used an iterative parcellation approach to map individualized brain systems in 328 participants from a multi-site, placebo-controlled clinical trial. We hypothesized that depressed participants would show abnormalities in salience, control, default, and affective systems, which would be associated with higher levels of self-reported anhedonia, anxious arousal, and worse cognitive performance. Within hypothesized brain systems, we compared patch sizes (number of vertices) between depressed and healthy control groups. Within depressed groups, abnormal patches were correlated with hypothesized clinical and behavioral measures
Results
Significant group differences emerged in hypothesized patches of (a) the lateral salience system (parietal operculum; t=–3.11, p=0.002) and (b) control system (left medial posterior prefrontal cortex region; z=–3.63, p<0.001), with significantly smaller patches in these regions in depressed participants compared to healthy controls. Results suggest that depressed participants with significantly smaller patch sizes in lateral salience system and control system regions experience greater anxious arousal and cognitive deficits
Conclusion
Findings imply neural features mapped at the individual-level may relate meaningfully to diagnosis, symptoms, and behavior. There is strong clinical relevance in taking an individualized brain systems approach to mapping neural functional connectivity as these associated region patch sizes may help advance our understanding of neural features linked to psychopathology and foster future patient-specific clinical decision-making.
