Table 4.

Spearman correlation coefficients obtained when the baseline value of each global index is used to predict the rate of change, with associated p-values in brackets. Values in bold were significantly different from the model that used MD to predict subsequent slope of MD (p<5%). The indices labeled ‘cap’ are calculated after pointwise sensitivities were capped at the age-corrected normal value.
