NP = data not provided. %L = percent left-biased, %A = percent with no bias, %R = percent right-biased. N = sample size; % Difference = percentage difference in the PT grey matter volume of the right and left hemispheres. Positive values indicate left hemisphere bias and negative values indicate right side bias.
