Figure 1. — Association of cortical volume with DBP and SBP. (a) Cortical volume (scaled by brain volume) is correlated with DBP (β = −0.18, P = 0.006, R² = 0.12) but not with SBP (β = −0.10, P = 0.126, R² = 0.10), after controlling for the selected covariates (sex, age, race, cognitive status, diabetes, smoking, alcohol use, heart failure, and education). (b) The relative importance of each variable is normalized to sum 100% of the explained portion of the total variance of the cortical volume. Abbreviations: DBP, diastolic blood pressure; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
