Long-term chronic experiments with conditioning of monkeys and biophysical and pharmacological stimulation require monitoring somatic, emotional, and behavioral reactions. To form experimental groups, it is necessary to estimate baseline psychosomatic state of a monkey. We developed a method of monitoring the functional state of Macaca monkeys and scoring state parameters. With slight modification, this method may be applied to other monkey species.

Early Intervention Unit, Department of Psychiatry, Affiliated Nanjing Brain Hospital, Nanjing Medical University, 264 Guangzhou Street, Nanjing, China.
Background: Intermediate phenotypes, such as characteristic neuroimaging patterns, offer unique insights into the genetic and stress-related underpinnings of neuropsychiatric disorders like depression. This study aimed to identify neuroimaging intermediate phenotypes associated with depression, bridging etiological factors to behavioral manifestations and connecting insights from animal models to diverse clinical populations.
Methods: We analyzed datasets from both rodents and humans.
