A total of 100 subjects were included, 60 adolescent with MDD (MDD group) and 40 healthy controls (HC group). All subjects accepted IRT detection.The random selection of 30 adolescent with MDD allowed the collection of the bilateral same name acupoint temperatures. Intra- and inter-observer reproducibility for the patients were examined in some randomly selected patients by 2 investigators and 2 investigators both made 2 independent measurements in a week. 30 MDD subjects were detected the bilateral same name acupoint temperatures.
