Fig. 4. Hippocampal neuroplasticity and clinical outcomes.

Fig. 4

A Right hippocampal E-field was not related to antidepressant outcomes (t46 = −0.62, p = 0.54). B Right hippocampal neuroplasticity had a relationship with antidepressant outcomes (t46 = −3.12, p = 0.003). C Structural equation modeling showed that right hippocampal neuroplasticity mediated the relationship between right hippocampal E-field strength and antidepressant response. D Right hippocampal E-field was associated with change in DKEFS Letter Fluency (t44 = −2.44, p = 0.02). E Right hippocampal neuroplasticity was not related to change in DKEFS Letter Fluency (t44 = −0.68, p = 0.50). F Structural equation modeling showed that right hippocampal neuroplasticity did not mediate the direct effect of right hippocampal E-field and change in DKEFS Letter Fluency. G Receiver operator characteristic curve analysis comparing right hippocampal E-field and cognitive outcome (change in DKEFS Letter Fluency > −3) revealed an area under the curve of 0.78 (95% CI: 0.64–0.93) and maximal sensitivity and specificity of 112.5 V/m.
