Figure 4. Comparisons of the power of ROC curve of the CARE index with behavioral, gray matter, and functional indices in predicting the P-MCI versus N-MCI subjects in the ADNI and NADS datasets. (A–C) represent comparisons of the power of ROC curve of the CARE index and individual behavioral, gray matter, and functional indices in the ADNI dataset, respectively. (D–F) represent comparisons of the power of ROC curve of the CARE index and individual behavioral, gray matter, and functional indices in the NADS dataset, respectively.
