How sertraline alleviates depressive syndrome by modulating the intrinsic connectivity networks (ICNs) remains elusive. Herein, we take a network-based investigation on SN to rationalize the functional and behavior effect of the sertraline treatment using resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC). Our study demonstrated that the sertraline treatment exhibited beneficial modulations on the DN_MTL–SN–thalamus pathway for alleviating depressive syndromes in MDD patients.
