Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria for patients with MDD included (1) those who met the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, mental retardation, pervasive developmental disorder, delirium, dementia, memory disorders, or other cognitive disorders; (2) those who suffered from severe unstable somatic diseases, organic brain diseases (e.g., ischemic strokes, brain hemorrhages, and brain tumors) or a history of severe traumatic brain injury, narrow angle glaucoma; (3) a history of alcohol or substance abuse/dependence within the past 1 year; (4) a history of loss of consciousness for more than 5 minutes; (5) a history of suicide attempts, severe suicidal ideation (Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale (SIOSS) >=12 points); (6) those who have received electroconvulsive ECT, rTMS treatment within the past 3 months (6) those who have received electroconvulsive ECT, rTMS treatment in the past 3 months; (7) pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those who are planning to be pregnant; (8) those who have pacemakers, cochlear implants, or other metallic foreign bodies and any electronic equipment implanted in the body, and those who have contraindications to magnetic resonance scanning, such as claustrophobia; and (9) those who are deemed unsuitable for participation by the investigator. Exclusion criteria for healthy subjects included (1) the person or a first-degree relative suffering from any mental disorder that met the diagnostic criteria through the MINI interview; (2) a serious unstable physical illness, organic brain disease (e.g., ischemic stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, brain tumor, etc.) or a history of severe traumatic brain injury, narrow-angle glaucoma; (3) a history of postalcoholic substance abuse/dependence in the past 1 year; (4) a history of loss of consciousness for more than 5 minutes; (5) history of suicide attempts, serious suicidal ideation or behavior; (6) pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those who are planning to become pregnant; (7) persons with pacemakers, cochlear implants, or other metallic foreign objects and any electronic equipment implanted in the body, and persons with contraindications to MRI scanning, such as claustrophobia; and (8) those who, in the opinion of the investigator, are unsuitable for the participant.
