Multiple regression analysis identified BMI as an independent predictor of composite brain SUVR (β = -0.0168, p = 0.0046), while SUVR SG was marginally significant (β = -0.0714, p = 0.0701).

For composite brain SUVR, higher BMI was significantly associated with lower SUVR B ( p = 0.0046), while SUVR SG showed a trend toward reduced SUVR B , though it did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.0701).
