Metabolite	Controls	Patients	p-value
NAA	^a8.7±1.2 (n=11)	^a8.8±1.6 (n=16)	0.876
Cr	^a7.4±1.2 (n=10)	^a8.7±2.2 (n=19)	0.035
Cho	^a2.1±0.3 (n=10)	^a2.3±0.7 (n=18)	0.189
mIns	^a5.2±0.9 (n=10)	^a6.1±1.5 (n=12)	0.161

Means ± Standard deviation, number of subjects from whom the data was derived n (in parentheses), and p-values (from unequal variance T tests) of the absolute NAA, Cr, Cho and mIns hippocampal GM concentrations ^a(millimolar), as well as the volumes of the bilateral hippocampi in controls and patients (in cm³). Significant differences are in boldface; note elevation of Cr and reduction in volume in patients compared to controls.
