To investigate depressed symptoms in SAPHO(Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis ) syndrome and confirm depression in SAPHO using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). We recruited twenty-four SAPHO patients and fifteen age- and gender-matched normal controls (NC). Twelve of the SAPHO patients were diagnosed with depression. Moreover, depressed SAPHO patients (D-SAPHO) were proved to have abnormal amplitude of low frequency fluctuations (ALFF) and functional connectivities (FC) involved in the regional brain changes which showed correlated with the severity of depression. These findings provide crucial information to understand the neural mechanisms of depressed SAPHO and are helpful to diagnose depression in SAPHO.
