Fig. 1: Vertex-wise analysis of cortical volume change between multiparous, primiparous and control women.
From: The effects of a second pregnancy on women’s brain structure and function
Vertex-wise analyses showing brain areas in which the cortical volume decreased from pre-pregnancy (PRE) to early postpartum (POST) in second-time mothers (PRG2; n = 30; a) and in first-time mothers (PRG1; n = 40; c) versus control women (CTR; n = 40). Values represent −log(FDR-corrected p value), thresholded at 3 (being p = 0.001). Extracted total volumes of all the significant vertices are shown in b (PRG2-CTR) and d (PRG1-CTR), with *p < 0.001 for two-sided paired t-tests (PRG2-CTR) or two-sided Wilcoxon signed rank tests (PRG1-CTR) within groups. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
