Atrophy is defined as the difference between intracranial and brain volumes divided by intracranial volume multiplied by hundred percent. All insulin values were log-transformed. Associations are expressed as standardized Beta with corresponding P-values. Results are from linear regression analysis corrected for age, gender and offspring- partner status
