Functional MRI of the immediate impact of transcranial magnetic stimulation on cortical and
subcortical motor circuits.
Not exact matches
Neurons in the inner layers are connected to
subcortical targets — such as the thalamus and basal ganglia — that deal with basic sensory and
motor signals.
More specifically, the researchers have confirmed that physical fitness in children (especially aerobic capacity and
motor ability) is associated with a greater volume of gray matter in several cortical and
subcortical brain regions.
In particular, aerobic capacity has been associated with greater gray matter volume in frontal regions (premotor cortex and supplementary
motor cortex),
subcortical regions (hippocampus and caudate nucleus), temporal regions (inferior temporal gyrus and parahippocampal gyrus) and the calcarine cortex.
Although many of the components of this syndrome, such as cognitive, sensory, and
motor disabilities, are shared by other congenital infections, 5 features differentiate CZS from other congenital infections: (1) severe microcephaly with partially collapsed skull; (2) thin cerebral cortices with
subcortical calcifications; (3) macular scarring and focal pigmentary retinal mottling; (4) congenital contractures; and (5) marked early hypertonia with symptoms of extrapyramidal involvement (Table).
