Bold entries highlight regions with statistically significant evidence against the null hypotheses of isometric scaling and/or equivalent intercepts/slopes between males and females.
↵*Coefficient measures the difference in scaling coefficient between males and females. Thus, anterior lobe volume scales isometrically with aTBV in females (coefficient = 0.93, no statistically significant difference from 1) but hypoallometrically with aTBV in males [coefficient = 0.46 (i.e., 0.93–0.47), significantly different from the female coefficient (p = 0.036) and from the isometric null coefficient of 1 (p = 0.002)].
