Thanks, Martin. This helps a lot.

Hi Swati,

- yes, you can treat the percent change maps (PC1) as the signal instead of the 
thickness and do a regular analysis (so either multiple comparisons or sim etc).

- and yes, I would always recommend to use the linear mixed effects model 
instead as it is specifically designed for longitudinal data. The percent 
change (2 step approach) is a remainder of the time before we had the LME. Both 
models are similar only if the longitudinal data has the same number of time 
points for each subject and if those time points are equally spaced. That is 
rarely the case and LME can account for that.

Best, Martin

It is the file computed longitudinal processing that represents the rate with 
respect to the thickness at the first time point computed by long_mris_slopes.

Sorry, what is "pc1"?

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could answer my question below

Can I use mri_glmfit-sim after mri_glmfit on the longitudinal pc1 files.

Are there any set of parameters that should be set differently when using pc1 
instead of thickness files?


Thanks!
Swati

Subject: [Freesurfer] mri_glmfit-sim for longitudinal pipelines

        External Email - Use Caution
Hello FreeSurfer Developers,

I'm attempting to compare longitudinal cortical thinning rates (pc1) between 3 
groups using mri_glmfit using FreeSurfer 6.0. The tutorial suggests that you 
could use the multiple comparisons corrections that come with it but does not 
comment on using the mri_glmfit-sim option.

I just want to confirm whether there is anything prohibiting me from using 
mri_glmfit-sim. Are there any set of parameters that should be set differently 
when using pc-1 instead of thickness files?

Also, would you do a stricter correction and stick to the longitudinal model or 
prefer the linear mixed effects model and do a FDR? How do you decide between 
the two?

Thanks!
Swati
