Partial correlations between intra-iFC in the right/left AI within the SN and severity of symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder.
| Right AI | Left AI | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| r-score | p-value | r-score | p-value | |
| HAM-D | −0.554 | 0.008* | 0.103 | 0.649 |
| BDI | −0.556 | 0.007* | −0.320 | 0.888 |
Italics indicate p < 0.05;
significant for p < 0.05, after Bonferroni-correction for multiple comparisons (n = 2).
Partial correlation, corrected for age, sex and total GM volume within brain areas covered by the 7 ICNs of interest.
