All significant results were presented in control of age, gender, and educational level with p < 0.05. TFCE-FWE correction was applied for voxel-wised two-sample T-test. To note, cluster size was set over 1,350 mm3 in ANCOVA analyses and over 270 mm3 in two-sample T-tests. CN, normal control; SCD, subjective cognitive decline; naMCI, non-amnestic mild cognitive impairment; aMCI, amnestic mild cognitive impairment; ALFF, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation; ANCOVA, analysis of covariance; AAL, anatomical automatic labeling; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute; R, right; L, left.
