DT metrics estimates (mean ± standard deviation, unadjusted p-values (bold indicates values that remain significant after Bonferroni correction for 8 dMRI comparisons), Cohen’s d and the percentage differences for ROI. Mean (MD), axial (D) and radial (D) diffusivities, fractional anisotropy (FA); fimbria (Fi), fornix (Fx), corpus callosum (CC), internal (IC) and external (EC) capsule, dorsal (DH) and ventral (VH) hippocampus.
