aFor the analysis of white matter volumes, the brain regions where voxel clusters were located were identified according to the MRI Atlas of Human White Matter (Oishi et al., 2010). For the analysis of glucose metabolism, brain regions were identified according to the Automatic Anatomical Labeling Toolbox for SPM12 (Rolls et al., 2015).
