Average pituitary volume (PV), signal intensity (PSI), and intracranial volume (ICV) for the alcohol-exposed (AE) and control (CON) groups

	Male		Female
Variable	CON n=16	AE n=15	CON n=11	AE n=11
Volume [M (SD)]⁺	524.2 (99.35)	546.7 (100.41)	629.8 (82.75)	529.7 (113.99)
Intensity [M (SD)]^*	159.6 (22.14)	135.9 (17.83)	179.1 (19.50)	169.0 (18.71)
ICV [M (SD)]^*	1,597,057.3 (124,860.90)	1,439,811.7 (126,725.76)	1,377,361.6 (120,925.46)	1,328,902.9 (115,129.02)

Note: Pituitary and intracranial volume units are expressed in mm³; signal intensity (i.e., brightness) is expressed as T1 MR. Asterisk indicates main effect of exposure group (AE<CON):

p<0.05; cross indicates exposure × sex interaction (AE females < CON females > CON males):

⁺

p<0.05.
