Accelerated functional brain aging in major depressive disorder: evidence from a large scale fMRI analysis of Chinese participants. (arXiv:2205.04871v1 [q-bio.NC])

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most common mental health
conditions that has been intensively investigated for its association with
brain atrophy and mortality. Recent studies reveal that the deviation between
the predicted and the chronological age can be a marker of accelerated brain
aging to characterize MDD. However, current conclusions are usually drawn based
on structural MRI information collected from Caucasian participants. The
universality of this biomarker needs to be further validated by subjects with
different ethnic/racial …
