BackgroundAlthough depression is one of the most common neuropsychiatric symptoms in essential tremor (ET), the diagnosis biomarker and intrinsic brain activity remain unclear. We aimed to combine multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) with local brain functional connectivity to identify depressed ET.MethodsBased on individual voxel-level local brain functional connectivity (regional homogeneity, ReHo) mapping from 41 depressed ET, 43 non-depressed ET, and 45 healthy controls (HCs), the binary support vector machine (BSVM) and multiclass Gaussian Process Classification (MGPC) algorithms were used to identify depressed ET patients from non-depressed ET and HCs, the accuracy and permutations test were used to assess the classification performance.ResultsThe MGPC algorithm was able to classify the three groups (depressed ET, non-depressed ET, and HCs) with a total accuracy of 84.5%. The BSVM algorithm achieved a better classification performance with total accuracy of 90.7, 88.64, and 90.48% for depressed ET vs. HCs, non-depressed ET vs. HCs, and depressed ET vs. non-depressed ET, and the sensitivity for them at 80.49, 76.64, and 80.49%, respectively. The significant discriminative features of depressed ET vs. HCs were primarily located in the cerebellar-motor-prefrontal gyrus-anterior cingulate cortex pathway, and for depressed ET vs. non-depressed ET located in the cerebellar-prefrontal gyrus-anterior cingulate cortex circuits. The partial correlation showed that the ReHo values in the bilateral middle prefrontal gyrus (positive) and the bilateral cerebellum XI (negative) were significantly correlated with clinical depression severity.ConclusionOur findings suggested that combined individual ReHo maps with MVPA not only could be used to identify depressed ET but also help to reveal the intrinsic brain activity changes and further act as the potential diagnosis biomarker in depressed ET patients. |
