While diagnostic categories often obscure symptom variability, network approaches offer a powerful way to examine how symptoms relate to one another within and across conditions. By identifying symptom clusters, these methods can provide insights into potential mechanisms of comorbidity and symptom maintenance and may ultimately help guide more personalized treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0033291726105480_sec2\" sec-type=\"methods\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We examined patients (\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0=\u00a033,675) seeking treatment for anxiety or depression through a message-based psychotherapy platform. Participants completed standardized measures of anxiety (GAD-7) and depression (PHQ-9) at baseline. We estimated a Gaussian Graphical Model of anxiety and depressive symptoms and identified overlapping symptom clusters using a modified Walktrap algorithm. We assigned patients to clusters based on presenting symptoms.
