    A, In MTR histograms, the normalized whole brain peak for patients with HIV is lower and shifted to the left, demonstrating significantly reduced MTR value compared with that of control subjects. AU indicates arbitrary unit; asterisk, P < .05. B, Whole brain mean MTR and peak site for HIV and control subjects. Asterisk indicates P < .05; double asterisks, P < .01.
