These clusters are referred to multiple comparisons correction using the FWE rate (a cluster-defining threshold of P=0.001 and a corrected cluster significance of P<0.05). AAL, automated anatomical labeling; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute; HC, healthy control; MCI, mild cognitive impairment; aMCI, amnestic MCI; PD-MCI, Parkinson’s disease with MCI.
