Placebo-controlled study of tianeptine in major depressive episodes.

abstract：AIMS:The aim was to measure the prefrontal cortical activity involved in shifting spatial attention to visual stimuli in the left or right visual field using near-infrared spectroscopy. METHODS:Eleven participants performed a simple vigilance task, an endogenous attention task and an exogenous attention task. In the e...
