  Figure 1. Network of symptoms with Bayesian estimation and walktrap community detection in the subgroups with and without MDE at 24 months. 1: Depression; 2: Somatic; 3: Agitation; 4: Anxiety. Each node corresponds to a symptom cluster identified in the previous symptom reduction. Nodes are connected with lines (edges) that represent the strength of association between nodes. Green edges suggest a positive association, whereas red edges suggest a negative association. The thickness of the edge represents the edge’s weight, which is an indication of the strength of the association. The thicker the edge, the greater the weight and the stronger the association. In this network, all edges connecting the nodes are green (positive correlation), with their width indicating the strength of their connections. Node colors indicate the community of the nodes. In the MDE YES network: pink for agitation and somatic symptoms and grey for depression and anxiety. In the MDE NO network: pink for agitation and grey for depression, anxiety and somatic symptoms.

  Figure 2. Network of trait measures with Bayesian estimation and walktrap community detection in the subgroups with and without MDE at 24 months. 1: TAS-20 Difficulty identifying feelings; 2: TAS-20 Difficulty describing feelings; 3: TAS-20 Externally oriented thinking; 4: TCI Novelty-seeking; 5: TCI Harm avoidance; 6: TCI Reward dependence; 7: TCI Self-directedness; 8: TCI Cooperativeness; 9: TCI Self-transcendence; 10: DS-14 Negative affectivity; 11: DS-14 Social inhibition; 12: DSQ-40 Mature defenses; 13: DSQ-40 Neurotic defenses; 14: DSQ-40 Immature defenses. Each node corresponds to a symptom cluster identified in the previous symptom reduction. Nodes are connected with lines (edges) that represent the strength of association between nodes. Green edges suggest a positive association, whereas red edges suggest a negative association. The thickness of the edge represents the edge’s weight, which is an indication of the strength of the association. The thicker the edge, the greater the weight and the stronger the association.

  Figure 3. Differences of personality networks between those with and without MDE at follow-up. 1: TAS-20 Difficulty identifying feelings; 2: TAS-20 Difficulty describing feelings; 3: TAS-20 Externally oriented thinking; 4: TCI Novelty-seeking; 5: TCI Harm avoidance; 6: TCI Reward dependence; 7: TCI Self-directedness; 8: TCI Cooperativeness; 9: TCI Self-transcendence; 10: DS-14 Negative affectivity; 11: DS-14 Social inhibition; 12: DSQ-40 Mature defenses; 13: DSQ-40 Neurotic defenses; 14: DSQ-40 Immature defenses. Each node corresponds to a trait-like feature. The edges connecting the nodes indicate the main edge differences between the network of those with MDE and those without MDE, with green edges indicating positive differences and red edges indicating negative differences.

  Figure 4. Network of symptoms with Bayesian estimation and walktrap community detection in the subgroups with and without MACE at 24 months. 1: Depression; 2: Somatic; 3: Agitation; 4: Anxiety. Each node corresponds to a symptom cluster identified in the previous symptom reduction. Nodes are connected with lines (edges) that represent the strengths of associations between nodes. Green edges suggest positive associations, whereas red edges suggest negative associations. The thickness of the edge represents the edge’s weight, which is an indication of the strength of the association. The thicker the edge, the greater the weight and the stronger the association. In this network, all edges connecting the nodes are green (positive correlation), and their widths indicate the strength of their connections. Node colors indicate the community of the nodes. In the MACE YES network, three communities were identified: somatic symptoms, depression and anxiety, and agitation. In the MACE NO network, two communities were identified: pink for agitation, and grey for somatic symptoms, depression and anxiety. All edges connecting the nodes are green (positive correlation), and their widths indicate the…

  Figure 6. Graphical representation of edge differences in the trait-like features network with Bayesian estimation between those with and without MACE at follow-up. 1: TAS-20 Difficulty identifying feelings; 2: TAS-20 Difficulty describing feelings; 3: TAS-20 Externally oriented thinking; 4: TCI Novelty-seeking; 5: TCI Harm avoidance; 6: TCI Reward dependence; 7: TCI Self-directedness; 8: TCI Cooperativeness; 9: TCI Self-transcendence; 10: DS-14 Negative affectivity; 11: DS-14 Social inhibition; 12: DSQ-40 Mature defenses; 13: DSQ-40 Neurotic defenses; 14: DSQ-40 Immature defenses. Each node corresponds to a trait-like feature. The edges connecting the nodes indicate the main edge differences between the network of those with MACE and those without MACE. All edges are red, indicating negative differences.
