Insula activity in resting-state differentiates bipolar from unipolar depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract Symptomatic overlap of depressive episodes in bipolar disorder (BD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) is a major diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Mania in medical history remains the only reliable distinguishing marker which is problematic given that episodes of depression compared to...
