Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-37658-5, published online 31 January 2019

This Article contains errors in Tables 2 and 3, where the uncorrected p-values are given rather than the corrected Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values. As a result the Table legends,

“Summary of the effects of age on gray and white matter microstructural indices. *Controlled for intracranial volume, **5% FDR corrected. ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, MPF = macromolecular proton fraction, ODI = orientation dispersion index, PHC = parahippocampal cingulum.”

should read:

“Summary of the effects of age on gray and white matter microstructural indices. *Controlled for intracranial volume, **5% False Discovery Rate Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values. ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, MPF = macromolecular proton fraction, ODI = orientation dispersion index, PHC = parahippocampal cingulum.”

and

“Summary of the results of the hierarchical regression models testing for the effects of genetic and lifestyle risk variables on fornix and hippocampus mediator variables. 5% FDR corrected p-values are highlighted in bolds.”

should read:

“Summary of the results of the hierarchical regression models testing for the effects of genetic and lifestyle risk variables on fornix and hippocampus mediator variables. pBHadj, 5% False Discovery Rate Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values (significant p-values are highlighted in bold). BP = blood pressure, FH = family history, ICV = intracranial volume, ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, MPF = macromolecular proton fraction, WHR = waist-hip-ratio.”

The correct Tables 2 and 3 appear below with their accompanying legends as Tables 1 and 2 respectively.

Table 1 Summary of the effects of age on gray and white matter microstructural indices. *Controlled for intracranial volume, **5% False Discovery Rate Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values. ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, MPF = macromolecular proton fraction, ODI = orientation dispersion index, PHC = parahippocampal cingulum.
Table 2 Summary of the results of the hierarchical regression models testing for the effects of genetic and lifestyle risk variables on fornix and hippocampus mediator variables. pBHadj, 5% False Discovery Rate Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values (significant p-values are highlighted in bold). BP = blood pressure, FH = family history, ICV = intracranial volume, ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, MPF = macromolecular proton fraction, WHR = waist-hip-ratio.

In addition, in Figure 3 the p-values for the following scatterplots are incorrect: Fornix ODI, LPHC R2, RPHC R1, LHC R1, LHC ODI and LHC kf. As a result, the Figure legend,

“Plots the correlations and Pearson coefficients (controlled for intracranial volume) between age and white and gray matter microstructural indices. Abbr.: ICSF = intracellular signal fraction, ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, kf = forward exchange rate, LHC = left hippocampus, LPHC = left parahippocampal cingulum, MPF = Macromolecular proton fraction, ODI = orientation dispersion index, R = longitudinal relaxation rate, RHC = right hippocampus, RPHC = right parahippocampal cingulum ****p < 0.0001, ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05, 5% False Discovery Rate”

should read:

“Scatterplots of the correlations and Pearson coefficients (controlled for intracranial volume) between age and white and gray matter microstructural indices. Abbr.: ICSF = intracellular signal fraction, ISOSF = isotropic signal fraction, kf = forward exchange rate, LHC = left hippocampus, LPHC = left parahippocampal cingulum, MPF = Macromolecular proton fraction, ODI = orientation dispersion index, R = longitudinal relaxation rate, RHC = right hippocampus, RPHC = right parahippocampal cingulum ****p < 0.0001, ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01 (5% False Discovery Rate Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-values).”

The correct Figure 3 and its accompanying legend appears below as Figure 1.
