  • The three regions per age bracket and domain displaying the greatest integrated positive change at the >97.5 percentile, are presented. Integrated change was calculated via trapezoidal summation in the segmented age bracket. Coordinates refer to the left voxel of the ROI. Higher values signify greater positive change. The “N.ROIs” column represents the number of ROIs in the >97.5 percentile subset (601 ROIs/comparison) for which the center voxel is located in the AAL (automated anatomical labeling) region listed. For instance, in the case of the first row entry, the left anterior cingulate gyrus displayed the greatest positive change at x, y, and z locations (−3, 30, and −6), but this region was among the top 601 ROIs displaying the greatest positive change for 71 of the 601 ROIs.
