A Correlation Study of Cognitive Function in Patients With Depression

Many studies have shown that patients with depression had weak brain region connections and low levels of activation of the prefrontal lobe when brain activity was active and that patients with depression have a negative attentional bias, and the patient's abnormal attentional allocation may stem from a loss of attention avoidance of negative cues and a loss of attention preference for positive cues. Here use the near-infrared, eye movement to evaluate the cognitive function in patients with depression. The purpose of the study is to explore the correlation between depressed symptom and cognition function among the depression patients and the difference between first-onset of depressed patients and those is recurrent.
