Correlations with MMSE scores in the same period. a Correlation between global FA and the MMSE of the same period. b Correlation between global ADC and the MMSE of the same period. c Correlation between FA of the uncinate fascicles and the MMSE of the same period. d Correlation between ADC of the uncinate fascicles and the MMSE of the same period. e Correlation between the z-score of the parahippocampal gyrus and the MMSE of the same period. Both global FA and global ADC did not shown statistically significant correlation. FA of the uncinate fascicles of both sides showed a positive correlation (right r = 0.42, left r = 0.39), and ADC of the uncinate fascicles of both sides showed a negative correlation (right r = −0.44, left r = −0.39) with the MMSE of the same period. Volume loss of the parahippocampal gyrus showed a negative correlation (r = −0.48)
