External Email - Use Caution
Good morning Doug,
I am trying to create a contrast matrix (also attached as a text file) for the following conditions -
I have two treatment arms A and B For treatment arm A, I have subjects 1, 2, 3 imaged at TP1, TP2, TP3 For treatment arm B, I have subjects 4, 5, 6 imaged at TP1, TP2, TP3.
I have used the repeated measures ANOVA tutorial to set up some of the contrasts as follows -
GroupDescriptorFile 1 Title A-Vs-B-Long Class A-TP1 Class B-TP1 Class A-TP2 Class B-TP2 Class A-TP3 Class B-TP3 Variables A-TP1-vs-A-TP2 A-TP1-vs-A-TP3 B-TP1-vs-B-TP2 B-TP1-vs-B-TP3 A-TP1-vs-B-TP1 A-TP2-vs-B-TP2 A-TP3-vs-B-TP3 Input sub1-TP1 A-TP1 1 1 0 0 Input sub2-TP1 A-TP1 1 1 0 0 Input sub3-TP1 A-TP1 1 1 0 0 Input sub4-TP1 B-TP1 0 0 1 1 Input sub5-TP1 B-TP1 0 0 1 1 Input sub6-TP1 B-TP1 0 0 1 1 Input sub1-TP2 A-TP2 -1 0 0 0 Input sub2-TP2 A-TP2 -1 0 0 0 Input sub3-TP2 A-TP2 -1 0 0 0 Input sub4-TP2 B-TP2 0 0 -1 0 Input sub5-TP2 B-TP2 0 0 -1 0 Input sub6-TP2 B-TP2 0 0 -1 0 Input sub1-TP3 A-TP3 0 -1 0 0 Input sub2-TP3 A-TP3 0 -1 0 0 Input sub3-TP3 A-TP3 0 -1 0 0 Input sub4-TP3 B-TP3 0 0 0 -1 Input sub5-TP3 B-TP3 0 0 0 -1 Input sub6-TP3 B-TP3 0 0 0 -1
Question 1 - My question is how do I setup the contrasts for the different treatment arms -
A-TP1-vs-B-TP1 A-TP2-vs-B-TP2 A-TP3-vs-B-TP3
Question 2 - Also I have age and cognitive scores for each timepoint. How do I add those to the contrast file ?
Thank you for the help,
Regards
Rito

Yes, it will work on both. If you use a table, then pass the table with --table tablefile instead of --y

Thanks Doug for the answers. Quick naive question. The analyses I want to perform are on volumetric data parcellated using aseg and not surface data.
Does mri_glmfit work with the output of the asegstats2table or on voxelwise FA maps ?
Many thanks
Rito

External Email - Use CautionHi All,
I have the following data –
I have 205 subjects - each subject was imaged at 3 timepoints (baseline, followup 1 and followup 2)
The 205 subjects are split in two treatment arms with 100 subjects in the first one and 105 subjects in the second one.
For each timepoint, I have created FA maps in their native diffusion space.
I have also extracted the mean FA maps for 187 ROIs using mri_segstats.
For each timepoint, I have saved the results as a matrix (FA in 187 ROIs x 205 subjects) in a text file.
So I have three files for the three timepoints.
I have the age and cognitive score for each subject at each timepoint. And their gender.
I want to answer the following questions –
- Do the baseline FA correlate with the corresponding cognitive
score at baseline ?

- I am interested in testing whether the FA changed significantly
across the different timepoints and does that relate to the change in the cognitive score

- Is there an effect of treatment on this change in FA across time ?

Can you please suggest what programs in freesurfer will allow me to test these questions on both voxelwise and ROI wise ?
Many thanks for your help and guidance,
