Figure 1From: Reduced hippocampal and medial prefrontal gray matter mediate the association between reported childhood maltreatment and trait anxiety in adulthood and predict sensitivity to future life stressRelationships between hippocampal gray matter volume, childhood maltreatment, and trait anxiety ( N = 818). (A) Statistical parametric map from medial temporal lobe ROI analyses illustrating voxels exhibiting a significant negative correlation with CTQ total scores within the left hippocampus while controlling for age, gender, and recent life stress (LESS) (x = −18). (B) Scatterplot depicting hippocampal gray matter volume from a 5-mm sphere surrounding max voxel (x = −18, y = −21, z = −18) as a function of CTQ total scores. (C) Trait anxiety plotted against gray matter volumes from 5-mm sphere. Scatterplots reflect partial correlations between variables after controlling for gender, age, and recent life stress (LESS). Y axes reflect standardized residuals. (AU = arbitrary units).Back to article page
