Table 2.
Cox regression (survival) analyses of conversion from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease (31 converters, 99 non-converters). Individual points were identified visually from the center of the most prominently significant clusters of points of inward deformation. The distance of each point from the corresponding point in the template brain, and the volume of the structure (left or right hippocampus or entorhinal cortex) were both included in the same Cox regression model with age, sex, education and intracranial volume. Each Cox regression model is represented in one row with only two variables shown: distance of the point from the corresponding point on the template brain, and the volume of the relevant anatomical structure in which the point was located.
