Abstract

Abstract : Both adults and adolescents with depression have alterations in brain volume, but few studies have looked at whether these alterations can be found in adolescents with subthreshold depression, a risk for major depressive disorder. In this study, researchers looked for brain‐structure differences between 14‐year‐olds in the community with subthreshold depression and the subjects' depressive status two years later.
