Note: One-way ANOVA and Chi-square analyses were applied to test for group differences, statistical significance level was set at P < 0.05 (two-tailed). Significant P-values were in bold. Superscript letters indicated whether group mean was significantly worse than healthy controls (a), aMCI-m group (b) and aMCI-s group (c), based on post hoc pairwise comparisons (Bonferroni corrected P < 0.05). * The p value was obtained using One-way ANOVA. # The p value was obtained using Chi-square test with multiple comparison.
