Name in Literature	Reference	Research Type	Statistical Result	Relation Description
ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC)	Drevets, 2002	patients only		At baseline, the mean glucose metabolism was increased in th...... At baseline, the mean glucose metabolism was increased in the left and right lateral orbital cortex/ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) in the unmedicated depressives relative to controls. More...
ventrolateral prefrontal cortex	Ottowitz, 2010	patients and normal controls		Brain function evaluated across all three conditions showed ...... Brain function evaluated across all three conditions showed that patients with major depressive disorder revealed activation of the left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex. Further analysis showed that patients with major depressive disorder had greater activation of the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex during strategy initiation. More...
ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC)	Salvadore, 2011	patients and normal controls		Relative to the HC(healthy controls) group the dMDD(currentl...... Relative to the HC(healthy controls) group the dMDD(currently-depressed participants) group had reduced gray matter(GM) in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC). Relative to the rMDD(currently-remitted) group the dMDD group showed reduced GM in the VLPFC More...
ventrolateral prefrontal cortex	Kerestes, 2012	patients and normal controls		rMDD patients exhibited significantly lower activity in the ...... rMDD patients exhibited significantly lower activity in the right DLPFC and left VLPFC compared to HC in response to positive emotional distracters during high working memory load.

Note:
1. The different color of the nodes denotes the level of the nodes.

Genetic/Epigenetic Locus	Protein and Other Molecule	Cell and Molecular Pathway	Neural System	Cognition and Behavior	Symptoms and Signs	Environment	MDD

2. User can drag the nodes to rearrange the layout of the network. Click the node will enter the report page of the node. Right-click will show also the menus to link to the report page of the node and remove the node and related edges. Hover the node will show the level of the node and hover the edge will show the evidence/description of the edge.
3. The network is generated using Cytoscape Web
