“…Nevertheless, because of their brief period of TH deficiency before treatment is received and takes effect, they still may show mild cognitive deficits, the nature and severity of which reflect the specific timing of their TH deficiency (Rovet, 2005). Structural neuroimaging studies of children with CH report that multiple brain regions show abnormal cortical thickness, including thinning of the superior parietal gyrus and precuneus, which belong to the dorsal stream, and inferior temporal gyrus belonging to the ventral visual stream (Clairman, Skocic, Lischinsky, & Rovet, 2015). Previous behavioral studies by our group and others suggest that visuospatial deficits in CH may be specific to the dorsal stream (Blasi et al, 2009;Leneman, Buchanan, & Rovet, 2001;Mirabella et al, 2005).…”
