Metabolites for monitoring symptoms and predicting remission in patients with depression who received electroconvulsive therapy: a pilot study

Abstract The lack of biomarkers to monitor and predict the efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has hindered its optimal use. To establish metabolomic markers for monitoring and predicting the treatment efficacy of ECT, we comprehensively evaluated metabolite levels in patients with major dep...
