Abstract: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a severe psychiatric disorder associated with shortened lifespan and comorbidities of advancing age. Accelerated biological ageing may underlie these associations. We used brainageR (a machine learning package) to predict age from brain structure, then used the discrepancy between brain-predicted age and chronological age as an indicator of accelerated brain ageing and poorer brain health. In two cohorts, UK Biobank and STRADL, MDD cases showed slightly higher brain age. Effects were stronger when focusing on MDD cases who were using psychotropic medications, suggesting that these medications contribute to brain ageing acceleration. Alternatively, subjects on medication may represent more severe cases of MDD.
Summary: Depressed individuals had slightly older-appearing brains than controls. Medication was associated with greater brain ageing acceleration.
