Pearson's Correlation between MR indexes and cognitive scores.
| MCI (N = 10) | AD (N = 10) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Verbal memory | MMSE | Verbal memory | MMSE | |
| Relative BT volume | n.s. | n.s. | 0.031 | n.s. |
| Relative WM volume | n.s. | n.s. | 0.019 | n.s. |
| MeanFA BT | 0.045 | n.s. | n.s. | n.s. |
| MeanMD left hippocampus | n.s. | n.s. | 0.048 | n.s. |
| MeanMD left hipp-PC/PCC | n.s. | n.s. | 0.029 | 0.037 |
Statistical analysis: 2-tailed Pearson's correlation; P < .05 is considered significant.
Only significant correlations were reported. MCI: mild cognitive impairment; AD: Alzheimer's disease; n.s.: not significant; MMSE: mini-mental state examination; Hipp-PC/PCC: hippocampus to PC/PCC tract.
