Table 3. Correlation of %HP extent and %WB extent with several factors.

%HP extent
Single correlation analysis Multiple linear regression analysis
r P β P
Log tHcy 0.51 <0.01 0.46 <0.01
BMI -0.38 0.03 -0.28 0.08
baPWV 0.43 0.01 0.23 0.16
%WB extent
Single correlation analysis Multiple linear regression analysis
r P β P
Age 0.65 <0.01 0.60 <0.01
sAlb -0.48 <0.01 -0.25 0.11
baPWV 0.61 <0.01 0.14 0.47

%HP extent was related to high log tHcy level. On the other hand, %WB extent was related to high age, significantly.

Abbreviations are; %HP, percentage of hippocampal atrophy; %WB, percentage of whole-brain atrophy; tHcy, total homocysteine; BMI, body mass index; baPWV, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity; sAlb, serum albumin.
