Abstract
Right middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarcts, as compared to left, appear to be more detrimental to locomotor control. In these patients, greater cerebellum and caudate gray matter volumes correlated with faster walking speeds. Following right MCA infarction, locomotor control may therefore depend on the function of regions distant to the infarct site. ![Graphic][1]</img> See p. 828; Editorial, p. 822 This study determined the relationship of frontal lobe cortical thickness and basal ganglia volumes to measures of cognition in 120 participants with sickle cell anemia and 33 controls. The findings suggest that basal ganglia and thalamus abnormalities may represent a particularly salient contributor … [1]: /embed/inline-graphic-1.gif
