Abstract Objectives To investigate the relationship between diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) indicators and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) with depressive states, and to explore the underlying mechanisms of white matter damage in CSVD with depression. Method A total of 115 elderly subjects were consecutively recruited from the neurology clinic, including 36 CSVD patients with depressive state (CSVD+D), 34 CSVD patients without depressive state (CSVD-D), and 45 controls. A detailed neuropsychological assessment and multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed. Based on tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) analysis and structural network analysis, differences between groups were compared, including white matter fiber indicators (fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity) and structural brain network indicators (global efficiency, local efficiency and network strength), in order to explore the differences and correlations of DTI parameters among the three groups. Results There were no significant differences in terms of CSVD burden scores and conventional imaging findings between the CSVD-D and CSVD+D groups. Group differences were found in DTI indicators (p |
