Associations between MD PRS and brain structural measures were tested hierarchically in three tiers. Tier 1 includes global measures, tier 2 consists of lobar structural measures (cortical thickness and surface area) or the entire subcortical structure, and finally, tier 3 consists of regional measures (cortical thickness, surface area and subcortical volume) of each individual region.
