Adjusted Z-scores of longitudinal changes in total and regional brain volumes in groups classified by muscle mass and strength. ΔVolumes are adjusted for intracranial volume, age, sex, smoking, alcohol, exercise, education, hypertension, heart disease, time between dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and first MRI, time between MRI scans, and baseline brain volume. *, Significantly (P < 0·05) different from control. **, Significantly (P < 0·01) different from control. Abbreviations: GM, gray matter; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; WM, white matter
