Title

Brain functional network and amino acid metabolism association in females with subclinical depression

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the association between complex brain functional networks and the metabolites in urine in subclinical depression. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals were recorded from 78 female college students, including 40 with subclinical depression (subclinical depression group) and 38 healthy controls (control group). The urine of all participants was collected for non-targeted LC-MS metabolic analysis to screen differential metabolites.
