OBJECTIVE: Subthreshold depression is an essential precursor and risk factor for major depressive disorder, and its accurate identification and timely intervention are important for reducing the prevalence of major depressive disorder. Therefore, we used functional near-infrared spectroscopic imaging (fNIRS) to explore the characteristics of the brain neural activity of college students with subthreshold depression in the verbal fluency task.
METHODS: A total of 72 subthreshold depressed college students (SDs) and 67 healthy college students (HCs) were recruited, and all subjects were subjected to a verbal fluency task (VFT) while a 53-channel fNIRS device was used to collect the subjects' cerebral blood oxygenation signals.
RESULTS: The results of the independent samples t-test showed that the mean oxyhemoglobin in the right dorsolateral prefrontal (ch34, ch42, ch45) and Broca's area (ch51, ch53) of SDs was lower than that of HCs. The peak oxygenated hemoglobin of SDs was lower in the right dorsolateral prefrontal (ch34) and Broca's area (ch51, ch53).The brain functional connectivity strength was lower than that of HCs. Correlation analysis showed that the left DLPFC and Broca's area were significantly negatively correlated with the depression level.
CONCLUSION: SDs showed abnormally low, inadequate levels of brain activation and weak frontotemporal brain functional connectivity. The right DLPFC has a higher sensitivity for the differentiation of depressive symptoms and is suitable as a biomarker for the presence of depressive symptoms. Dysfunction in Broca's area can be used both as a marker of depressive symptoms and as a biomarker, indicating the severity of depressive symptoms.
