Positive z-scores indicate an increase and negative z-scores a decrease of activation; x, y, z are coordinates in Talairach space (LPI). Abbreviations: **, highly significant (FWE corrected p < 0.01); *, significant (FWE corrected p < 0.05); rMDD, remitted Major Depressive Disorder; HC, healthy controls; BA, Brodmann Area; FWE, family-wise error rate; dlPFC, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; IPL, inferior parietal lobe; amPFC, anterior-medial prefrontal cortex; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex; MidSupITempG, middle, superior and inferior temporal gyrus; vlPFC, ventrolateral prefrontal cortex; PHG, parahippocampal gyrus; IMidFG, inferior and middle frontal gyrus.
