Changes in cerebral blood flow in the basal ganglia and thalami for each subject (paired sample, n = 11) between day 4 and day 11 of life. The box-and-whisker plots show the lower and upper quartiles (box edges), medians (line in boxes) and minimum/maximum values (lines at ends of whiskers). The dot-and-line diagrams show infants with injury (n = 5) (red squares and lines) and without injury (n = 6) (green circles and lines) on MRI. Differences between DOL4 and DOL11 were significant (p = .049). BGT = Basal Ganglia and Thalami; CBF = Cerebral Blood Flow; DOL4 = day 4 of life, DOL11 = day 11 of life.
