Figure 2

2, 3, 4, and 5: Uncorrected surface maps depicting relationships between levels of prenatal cocaine exposure and regional deformations of striatal surface ( n = 40). Blue-to-light-blue shading indicates regions where higher levels of prenatal cocaine exposure are associated with contraction of striatal surfaces. Red-to-yellow shading displays regions where higher exposure levels are associated with expansion of the surfaces. For all statistical maps, the color bar encodes the uncorrected P values (P <0.05) for the observed effects. 6, 7, 8: Uncorrected surface maps depicting relationships between neuropsychological scores (6: Stroop, 7: Trails A, 8: Trails B) and regional deformations of striatal surface in exposed subjects ( n  = 28). Red-to-yellow shading displays regions where higher scores (better performance on the Stroop test but longer response times on the Trails test) are correlated with larger regional striatal volumes. Few negative correlations were observed in these analyses. For all statistical maps, the color bar encodes the uncorrected P values (P <0.05) for the observed effects.
