However, diffusion tensor imaging studies in biological relatives have presented contradicting results on WM alterations and their potential as biomarkers for vulnerability or resilience. To shed more light on associations between WM microstructure and resilience to familial risk, analyses including both healthy and depressed relatives of MDD patients are needed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S003329172200188X_sec_a2\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>In a 2 (MDD v. healthy controls, HC) \u00d7 2 (familial risk yes v. no) design, we investigated fractional anisotropy (FA) via tract-based spatial statistics in a large well-characterised adult sample (<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic> = 528), with additional controls for childhood maltreatment, a potentially confounding proxy for environmental risk.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S003329172200188X_sec_a3\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Analyses revealed a significant main effect of diagnosis on FA in the forceps minor and the left superior longitudinal fasciculus (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>tfce\u2212FWE<\/jats:sub> = 0.009).
