Fig 1.
Illustrative representation of the contrast between microstructure measures of each 27 white matter tracts in the hypertensive and non-hypertensive groups.
Probabilistic tractographies colored by p values adjusted for Bonferroni correction were shown from top and down. White-colored tracts indicate adjusted p>0.05. Abbreviations: FA, fractional anisotropy; ICVF, intracellular volume fraction; ISOVF, isotropic volume fraction; MD, mean diffusivity.
Fig 2.
Illustrative representation of the contrast between microstructure measures of each 27 white matter tracts in the pre-hypertensive and normotensive groups.
Probabilistic tractographies colored by p values adjusted for Bonferroni correction were shown from top and down. White-colored tracts indicate adjusted p>0.05. Abbreviations: FA, fractional anisotropy; ICVF, intracellular volume fraction; ISOVF, isotropic volume fraction; MD, mean diffusivity.
Fig 3.
Illustrative representation of the contrast between microstructure measures of each 27 white matter tracts in the medicated and unmedicated groups.
Probabilistic tractographies colored by p values adjusted for Bonferroni correction were shown from top and down. White-colored tracts indicate adjusted p>0.05. Abbreviations: FA, fractional anisotropy; ICVF, intracellular volume fraction; ISOVF, isotropic volume fraction; MD, mean diffusivity.
