Alzheimer’s disease group |
Mutual correlations of layer roughness and Alzheimer’s disease-related variables for the whole sample (upper triangular matrix) and for the Alzheimer’s disease group (lower triangular matrix). Statistically significant values appear in boldface or bold italics (p < 0.05). Correlations of the 10 retinal layers with non-retinal variables appear in italics.
