Fig. 3.

Significant correlations with outcome at 2 years. (Ai) shows the bilateral locations in the thalamus where the correlation coefficients with the premotor region of interest at the time of normal birth are significantly correlated with motor outcome at 2 years old. (Aii) shows the area of the right thalamus where the correlation coefficients with the sensory-motor region of interest at the time of normal birth is correlated with cognitive scores at 2 years old. (B) Scatterplots showing the association between correlation scores between thalamus and cortical area (vertical axis) and outcome score for that subject (horizontal axis). Images are shown as per radiological convention. Significance testing using randomisation is shown at p < .05 (family-wise error corrected) using a general linear model to determine the relationship between correlation coefficients at the time of normal birth and outcome at 2 years old. In addition to family-wise error correction, these results also retain significance with voxel-wise testing. Cortical regions of interest and thalamus statistical images are shown in the same colours as per Table 3.
