  1. aThe structural regions were measured for both volumetrics (right and left hemispheres measured separately) and white matter.
  2. bFunctional connectivity included eight brain networks measured by four separate graph theory metrics.
  3. cThe concentrations of the three brain metabolites were measured in the same region of the brain. NAA is N-acetyl aspartate.
