The Table shows grey matter associations of performance on experimental tasks for the combined patient cohort, identified using voxel-based morphometry. All local maxima exceeding significance threshold p < 0.05 after family-wise error correction for multiple voxel-wise comparisons, either over the whole brain (italics) or within pre-specified anatomical regions of interest (Supplementary Fig. S1) in clusters > 20 voxels in size are presented. Peak (local maxima) coordinates are in MNI standard space. Only positive grey matter associations are shown; no negative (inverse) associations were identified at the prescribed significance threshold. ACC, Anterior cingulate cortex; Ant, anterior; IFG, inferior frontal gyrus; L, left; mPFC, medial prefrontal cortex; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex; Post, posterior; R, right; SMA, Supplementary motor area; SMG, supramarginal gyrus; STG/STS, superior temporal gyrus/sulcus. See Section 2.2 for further details of experimental contrasts.
