Table 2.

Results of diffusion tensor tractography parameters of the mammillothalamic tract in the patient and control groups

Hemisphere FA p Value Tract volume p Value
Patient group Right 0.36 (0.04, 0.36) 0.015* 69.08 (30.33, 72.00) 0.000*
Left 0.35 (0.04, 0.36) 78.86 (28.80, 80.50)
Both 0.36 (0.04, 0.36) 74.15 (23.39, 74.00)
Control group Right 0.38 (0.04, 0.38) 96.80 (22.7, 96.00)
Left 0.37 (0.03, 0.38) 99.73 (23.8, 103.00)
Both 0.38 (0.03, 0.38) 98.27 (22.9, 98.50)

Values represent mean (±SD, median value).

*p<0.05.

FA, fractional anisotropy; p, an independent t test for determination of variances in FA and tract volume between the patient and control groups.
