All p-values shown are uncorrected. P-values in bold indicate significance (p<0.05) or a trend for significance (p<0.1). For the β values, HIV Effect: reference is HIV+; Sex Effect: reference is female; HIV×Sex: β is for SN men vs. HIV women. Corpus callosum (genu, body and splenium sub-regions are the repeated factors); Corona radiata (anterior, posterior and superior sub-regions are the repeat factors); Internal capsule (anterior limb, posterior limb and retrolenticular sub-regions are the repeated factors).
