Table 2.
Partial correlations (corrected for age) between CBF extracted in cortical and subcortical regions of the motor circuit and UPDRS III, in PD patients (n = 28). Benjamini–Hochberg procedure was performed to correct for Type I errors. An alpha level of 0.05 was considered significant (in bold).
