Positive/negative z-scores represent increased/decreased deactivation of rMDD patients versus HC (two-back vs. zero-back); x, y, z are coordinates in Talairach space (LPI). Abbreviations: **, highly significant (FWE corrected p < 0.01); *, significant (FWE corrected p < 0.05); +, trend-wise significant (FWE corrected + p < 0.10); BA, Brodmann area; rMDD, remitted Major Depressive Disorder; HC, healthy controls; FWE, family-wise error rate; PCG, postcentral gyrus; amPFC, anterior-medial prefrontal cortex; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex; STG, superior temporal gyrus.
