BackgroundTotal sleep deprivation (TSD) transiently reverses depressive symptoms in a majority of patients with depression. How TSD modulates diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) measures of white matter (WM) microstructure, which may be linked with TSD’s rapid antidepressant effects, remains uncharacterized.MethodsPatients with depression (N = 48, mean age = 33, 26 women) completed diffusion-weighted imaging and Hamilton Depression Rating (HDRS) and rumination scales before and after >24 h of TSD. Healthy controls (HC) (N = 53, 23 women) completed the same assessments at baseline, and after receiving TSD in a subset of HCs (N = 15). Tract based spatial statistics (TBSS) investigated voxelwise changes in fractional anisotropy (FA) across major WM pathways pre-to-post TSD in patients and HCs and between patients and HCs at baseline. Post hoc analyses tested for TSD effects for other diffusion metrics, and the relationships between change in diffusion measures with change in mood and rumination symptoms.ResultsSignificant improvements in mood and rumination occurred in patients with depression (both p < 0.001), but not in HCs following TSD. Patients showed significant (p < 0.05, corrected) decreases in FA values in multiple WM tracts, including the body of the corpus callosum and anterior corona radiata post-TSD. Significant voxel-level changes in FA were not observed in HCs who received TSD (p > 0.05). However, differential effects of TSD between HCs and patients were found in the superior corona radiata, frontal WM and the posterior thalamic radiation (p < 0.05, corrected). A significant (p < 0.05) association between change in FA and axial diffusivity within the right superior corona radiata and improvement in rumination was found post-TSD in patients.ConclusionTotal sleep deprivation leads to rapid microstructural changes in WM pathways in patients with depression that are distinct from WM changes associated with TSD observed in HCs. WM tracts including the superior corona radiata and posterior thalamic radiation could be potential biomarkers of the rapid therapeutic effects of TSD. Changes in superior corona radiata FA, in particular, may relate to improvements in maladaptive rumination. |
