Abbreviation. HC: healthy controls; T1C: diabetic controls; WFS: Wolfram Syndrome group; SEM: standard error of the mean; PLIC: posterior limb of the internal capsule.

P values shown are for the main effect of group in univariate GLM analyses for each measure.

Values in bold survived Bonferroni correction (p<.005) for multiple comparisons.

a

different from HC group; bdifferent from T1C group.
