Results of the robust regressions showing the effect of TDP-43, tau (Braak) and Lewy body stages on grey matter volume. Values represent the percentage of volume change [95% confidence intervals] associated with TDP-43, Braak, and Lewy Body stages compare to TDP-43-negative, Braak Stage 0–II, and Lewy body-negative groups, respectively. Results in bold survived Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (α = 0.05, P < 0.004, 14 models considered). L = left; R = right.
