Re: [Freesurfer] LME : longitudinal correlations between imaging and cognition scores

2017-05-17 Thread Martin Reuter
Hi Matthieu, replacing time by score is very different from adding score as a covariate. Often scores are crude and often they are constant in controls (always full score), and only vary slightly in diseased. In those cases it may not be good to use score as a time variable. I would either a

Hi Maria, That command creates a stack of the percent changes , with one entry per subject (it reduces the longitudinal data of a subject to a single number, e.g. the percent change computed in different ways). Make sure you know what the difference is between pc1, pc1fit (in your case this

Hello, I am trying to run the trac-all -prep command in TRACULA on a participant. However, every time I run the command trac-prepoc exits with errors and I get the message: 'ERROR:must specify input table of b-values'. I checked over the configuration file and everything seems correct: b-value

[Freesurfer] Mean gray-white contrast for each ROI

Hi, I read from a previous post that the "{lh,rh}.w-g.pct.stats files in $SUBJECTS_DIR/subject/stats … will have the mean gray-white contrast for each ROI in the aparc." I've looked at the lh.w-g.pct.stats file and am not sure which values I should be looking at if I am interested in the ratio

Hi Martin, I will read up on interpretation of time varying covariates. If initially I use score as variable fixed across time, and define a variable for 'score x time' interaction: 1) Would putting only 1 to 'score x time' column (for contrast) test for progression of correlation patterns betwee

Dear All, With FS6, -parallel -openmp x can really speed things up. I inherited code from prior versions using -usegpu flag for GPU/CUDA (not supported more recently). Is the latter redundant or affecting in any way the -parallel -openmp x performance, should we take it out, please advise. Thank

Hi Jahanvi, I think red is positive (some people invert the colors, then red=hot=dangerous ). But I think default is blue negative, red positive, so there is an average increase in thickness. You should also look at the effect size (gamma). The p -values are in log 10 space, so 2 = 0.01 and 5
