Measure | HC (SD) | EMCI (SD) | LMCI (SD) | AD (SD) | Value of p | Group differences |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Path length | 1.568 (0.61) | 1.606 (0.61) | 1.501 (0.577) | 1.516 (0.585) | 0.05 | EMCI > LMCI; EMCI > AD |
Cluster coeff. | 0.783 (0.11) | 0.776 (0.11) | 0.793 (0.04) | 0.796 (0.11) | 0.52 | – |
Degree | 67.5 (23.98) | 51.689 (23.71) | 60.534 (24.11) | 59.431(24.14) | 0.02 | EMCI<LMCI; EMCI<AD |
It displays results in graph measures: the mean, standard deviation, and the significant differences between groups in path length, cluster coeff. (Clustering coefficient) and degree. The EMCI, early mild cognitive impairment group, presented a higher path length and a lower degree in comparison with the other groups.
