Positive/negative z-scores represent increased/decreased functional connectivity. Seeds are in the amPFC (5, 46, 12) and the dlPFC (−25, 26, 38). Significance is indicated by * (FWE corrected **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05); x, y, z are coordinates in Talairach space (LPI). Abbreviations: BA, Brodmann Area; rMDD, remitted Major Depressive Disorder; HC, healthy controls; dlPFC, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; amPFC, anterior-medial prefrontal cortex; SupMidFG, superior and middle frontal gyrus; MidFG, middle frontal gyrus; MedFG, medial frontal gyrus.
