Longitudinal average cortical thinning differences (mm), standard deviation (σ), and Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison post-hoc analysis in ANOVA (P). The data refer to: (d) CTR, (e) sMCI, (f) pMCI and (g) AD; α = 0.01 level.

¢: Significant difference between CTR and pMCI;

¥: Significant difference between CTR and AD.

Ξ: Significant difference between sMCI and pMCI;

¤: Significant difference between sMCI and AD N.S.: Not significant; CTR: Normal elderly controls; sMCI: stable MCI; pMCI: progressive MCI; AD: Alzheimer's disease.
