The aim of this study was to provide scientific basis for the therapeutic mechanism of auricular electro-acupuncture in treatment resistant depression patients. We evaluated the resting state functional connectivity before and after 8 week .Results showed that functional connectivity increased in the lingual gyrus and precuneus ,which is related to default mode network (DMN), might playing a potential part for the significant improvement of clinical symptoms in TRD patients.
