  1. Bold represents significant results (P <0.05).
  2. aRepresents significant results after correction for multiple comparisons with FDR (q = 0.1). A plus sign indicate the direction (upwards) of the group difference, + = NF1 > typically developing subjects.
  3. DoD = direction of difference; CC = corpus callosum; L = left; R = right; TIV = total intracranial volume.
