One-tailed partial correlation analysis was employed. Age, history of previous cerebral infarction, history of previous cerebral hemorrhage, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, and smoking history were initially proposed as control variables. However, the results presented here were obtained prior to actually controlling for these variables. The P-values were corrected using the Bonferroni method.
