is lower than (lt
) that <group_2>
.
Value for measure
can be ct
(cortical thickness from t1-freesurfer
), fdg
(from pet-surface
) or user-defined maps.
The value for fwhm
corresponds to the size of the surface-based smoothing in mm and can be 5
, 10
, 15
or 20
.
The JPEG files are simple snapshots.

Group comparison between patients with Alzheimer’s Disease (group_1

) and healthy subjects (group_2

).
ADvsHC
defines the group_label
.
The group-ADvsHC_glm.json
contains the information for your generalized linear model, for example:
{
"DesignMatrix": "1 + age + sex + group",
"StringFormatTSV": "%s %f %f",
"Contrast": "group",
"ClusterThreshold": 0.001
}
This file describes the model that you want to create, you should include the factor and covariates in your generalized linear model as a column name in this TSV file.
For example, the linear model formula is: CorticalThickness = 1 + age + sex + group
, the contrasts (factors) group
, age
and sex
are the covariates.
Additional information is included in the log file.
The content of group-ADvsHC_participants.tsv
is:
participant_id session_id sex group age
sub-CLNC0001 ses-M00 Female CN 71.1
sub-CLNC0002 ses-M00 Male CN 81.3

sub-CLNC0007 ses-M00 Male AD 78.3
sub-CLNC0008 ses-M00 Female AD 73.2
(Note that to make the display clearer, the rows contain successive tabs, which should not happen in an actual TSV file.)
The <group_id>
key/value stands for the group_label
for your analysis.
It can be used to run different analyses for different subjects or different analyses for the same subjects.
The example image here maps statistically significant differences in cortical thickness between a group of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and a group of healthy controls (yellow: correction at the vertex level; blue: correction at the cluster level).

The <group_1>-lt-<group_2>
means that the tested hypothesis is: "the measurement of <group_1>
is lower than (lt
) that of <group_2>
".
The value for measure
can be graymatter
(output of t1-volume
), 18FFDG
or 18FAV45
(output of pet-volume
), or user-defined maps.
The value for fwhm
corresponds to the size of the volume-based smoothing in mm.
Corrected results are stored under the following hierarchy:
groups/
└─ <group_id>/
└─ statistics_volume/

└─ <group_id>_<group_1>-lt-<group_2>_measure-<label>_fwhm-<n>_desc-{FDRc|FDRp|FWEc|FWEc}_GlassBrain.png
FWEp
(resp. FDRp
) corresponds to correction for multiple comparisons with family-wise error (FWE) (resp. false discovery rate [FDR]) correction at the peak (=voxel) level with a statistical threshold of P < 0.05.
FWEc

) corresponds to correction for multiple comparisons with family-wise error (FWE) (resp. false discovery rate [FDR]) correction.
A statistical threshold of P < 0.001 was first applied (height threshold).
An extent threshold of P < 0.05 corrected for multiple comparisons was then applied at the cluster level.
