Plots showing the relationship of age and weight and total brain volume of the sample. Total brain volume is plotted against age in the top. There is a significant difference between the total brain volumes of males (circles, dashed line) compared with females (triangles, solid line), but the flat lines indicate the lack of age effect on total brain volume. The lower plot also demonstrates an effect of sex, but not weight on total brain volume.
