ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryBlood-oxygen-level-dependent Significant Activation Clusterfor 90 minutes after the drug/placebo was commenced
Three anatomical regions for which there was an a priori mechanistic hypothesis were assessed using standard small volume correction: (i) the amygdala, bilaterally; (ii) the hippocampus, bilaterally; and (iii) the parahippocampus, bilaterally. Using single-tailed t tests, a priori regions were reported as significant if the initial uncorrected voxel-wise P value was \< 0.001, and then the P value was \< 0.05 after family-wise error correction for multiple comparisons in the hypothesized anatomical region. For non-hypothesized regions outside the medial temporal lobe, findings were reported as significant if the initial uncorrected voxel-wise P value was \< 0.001, and then the P value was \< 0.05 after family-wise error correction for multiple comparisons across the whole brain. Clusters containing voxel maxima at these thresholds are reported.
