Slopes and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for regression through the origin of independent contrasts of frontal cortex gray matter (neog), rest of cortex gray matter, and subcortical (subcort) brain. Data for all mammals and for primate total neocortex consists of our own data combined with that of Frahm et al. (1).
