Areas of significant positive correlations between white matter volume and BMI controlling for age and intracranial vault from two analyses with and without including hypertension (HT) as a covariate in the regression analysis. The coordinates of the location of maximal significance [from Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) template], the t value, and volume (in mm3) of each cluster are provided. R: right hemisphere; L: left hemisphere.
