  1. Statistically significant differences between groups (p < 0.05) are highlighted in bold.
  2. aWilcoxon signed rank test.
  3. 1-Y FU = 1-year follow-up; CblV, cerebellar volume; CblGMV, cerebellar grey matter volume; CblWMV, cerebellar white matter volume. All values are expressed in mL. Values represent mean (± SD).
