The association between three MRI measures and memory performance in a regression model simultaneously including all 3 measuresa

MRI measure All participants R2 = 0.51 High R2 = 0.56 Low R2 = 0.52
Estimateb (SE) p-value Estimate (SE) p-value Estimate(SE) p-value
GM (%TCV) 9.42 (3.67) 0.01 0.14 (8.64) 0.99 −0.19 (8.39) 0.98
WMHc 0.20 (0.06) 0.002 0.33(0.08) < 0.001 −0.11 (0.10) 0.32

Abbreviations: Whole = whole group of participants; High = high gray matter group (above median gray matter volume); Low = low gray matter group(below median gray matter volume); GM = gray matter; WMH = white matter hyperintensity; TCV = total brain volume; MPF_LIP = connectivity between medial prefrontal and left inferior parietal regions.

a

Episodic memory: composite measure of Word list learning I and Word list learning II; Gender, education and adjusted age (residual age against GM and WMH) were controlled in the regression model.

b

Unstandardizied coefficients from regression models carried out on original (unstandardized) variables.

c

Residuals of log transformed WMH percentage of total brain volume on GM.

d

Absolute values of fisher Z transformed correlation coefficients
