Fronto-Cingulate Gamma Synchrony Predicts Deep Brain Stimulation Response in Treatment-Resistant Depression: Preliminary Evidence
Background: Gamma-band activity has been linked to cognitive-affective processing in depression. However, its role in deep brain stimulation (DBS) response in treatment-resistant depression (TRD) remains unclear. This exploratory study investigated whether ventral capsule/ventral striatum DBS (VCVS-DBS) modulates gamma activity during cognitive-affective processing and whether DBS-related gamma changes are associated with improvement in depressive symptoms. Methods: Seven participants with TRD completed an affectiv …
