Regional volumes as determined from stereology of histologic sections. A. Total brain volume is smaller in animals with microgyria than in shams (P < .001). This is true across all environmental conditions. B. Microgyric subjects have smaller neocortical volumes than do shams at all environmental conditions (P < .001). C. The volume of non-neocortical regions is smaller in microgyric as compared to sham subjects (P < .01). This is true across all environmental conditions. D. The ratio of neocortical to total brain volume is smaller in microgyric subjects, indicating that neocortex is disproportionately smaller in subjects with microgyria (P < .001).
