Note: Group comparisons controlling for sex and age at scan. ROI values extracted from the FreeSurfer Desikan parcellation. R: Right; L: Left. Thickness and sulcal depth measured in mm; area measured in mm2. M: mean; sd: standard deviation; F: F ratio results for the between-group ANCOVA controlling for sex and age at scan. Group differences with medium and large effect sizes are represented in bold.
