Data are the mean ± standard deviation (mm3). Repeated-measures analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) controlling for age, sex, and total intracranial cavity volume was performed. “Diagnosis X hemisphere” means the interaction effect of diagnosis by hemisphere. FDR was applied in the comparisons of the total and subfield volumes (8 comparisons), . Regions that remained significant after FDR correction are marked with an asterisk. HC, healthy control group; PD, Parkinson’s disease, nondementia group; CA, cornu ammonis; DG, dentate gyrus; FDR, false discovery rate by Benjamini and Hochberg.
