  • DMPFC = dorsomedial prefrontal cortex; OFC = orbitofrontal cortex.

  • * Results from the regression analysis with diagnosis, age and sex entered as independent variables in a first model and grey matter volumes as dependent variables. Childhood maltreatment was entered in a second step to see whether it would further influence variance in addition to the factors age, sex or diagnosis. Depicted are coefficients and statistics of change. A positive association between brain volume and diagnosis indicates smaller volumes in patients.
