Figure 2

Individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibited lower intrinsic functional connectivity in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Single group ICD maps for (a) HC participants and (b) individuals with MDD show greatest connectivity in midline ‘hub’ regions with visually reduced ICD connectivity in the vmPFC for the MDD patients. (c) For MDD compared to HC, the vmPFC exhibited significantly (p<0.05 corrected) reduced ICD connectivity. (d) For individuals with MDD, ICD connectivity in the ventral anterior cingulate cortex (vACC) was inversely correlated with Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (1st 17). Images shown at p<0.05, corrected for multiple comparisons.
