Fig. 2: The group differences in FCT-DT consistency in the WM tracts and its correlation to clinical symptoms.

a The abnormal WM tracts in SZ group. The color of WM tracts corresponds to the T value. SS_L left sagittal stratum, SLF superior longitudinal fasciculus, PTR posterior thalamic radiation, CST_R right corticospinal tract. b The correlation between FCT-DT consistency and clinical symptoms in SZ. Partial correlation was used with controlling sex, age, education and mean FD of fMRI. The significance level was set at P < 0.05 (uncorrected). RIC_L left retrolenticular part of internal capsule, PCR_L left posterior corona radiata, CGC_L left cingulum (cingulate gyrus), #: uncorrected.
