List of the brain regions showing a significant connectivity with the left M1 in normal subjects and patients with PD (one sample t test, P < 0.05, FWE corrected). The coordinates are given as stereotaxic coordinates referring to the atlas of Talairach and Tournoux. Positive t value means positive connectivity between the brain regions and M1; Negative t value means negative connectivity between the brain regions and M1; L, left; R, right; M1, primary motor cortex; SD, standard deviation; SMA, supplementary motor area.
