Ten patients did not complete the full treatment trial.
For demographic variables, comparison of patients with and without remission on demographic variables, two-sided t test, alpha=0.05. For MRI volumes and thicknesses, comparison of patients with and without remission on brain region of interest, two-sided t test, alpha=0.05.
All volumes are bilateral.
