In contrast, pathological RF positivity demonstrated only one nominally significant association at the Pearson level, which did not persist after BH adjustment, suggesting a modest or tract-restricted effect.
The strongest effects were found in cerebellar peduncles, anterior thalamic radiations, fronto-pontine tracts, and corticospinal tracts, all showing large standardized mean differences (Cohen’s d raging from − 1.5 to − 2.5) and highly significant Mann–Whitney U test results.
