Individualized resting-state functional connectivity abnormalities unveil two major depressive disorder subtypes with contrasting abnormal patterns of abnormality by Keke Fang, Lianjie Niu, Baohong Wen, Liang Liu, Ya Tian, Huiting Yang, Ying Hou, Shaoqiang Han, Xianfu Sun, Wenzhou Zhang

“…Abstract Modern neuroimaging research has recognized that major depressive disorder (MDD) is a connectome disorder, characterized by altered functional connectivity across large-scale brain networks. However, the clinical heterogeneity, likely stemming from diverse neurobiological disturbances, complicates findings from standard group comparison methods. …”
