Periventricular white matter injury (PWMI) is a common cause of spastic cerebral palsy (SCP). Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) shows high sensitivity but moderate specificity for predicting SCP. The limited specificity may be due to the diverse and extensive brain injuries seen in infants with PWMI. We enrolled 72 infants with corrected age from 6 to 18 months in 3 groups: PWMI with SCP (n = 20), non-CP PWMI (n = 19), and control (n = 33) groups. We compared DTI-based brain network properties among the three groups and evaluated the diagnostic performance of brain network properties for SCP in PWMI infants. Our results show abnormal global parameters (reduced global and local efficiency, and increased shortest path length), and local parameters (reduced node efficiency) in the PWMI with SCP group. On logistic regression, the combined node efficiency of the bilateral precentral gyrus and right middle frontal gyrus had a high sensitivity (90%) and specificity (95%) for differentiating PWMI with SCP from non-CP PWMI, and significantly correlated with the Gross Motor Function Classification System scores. This study confirms that DTI-based brain network has great diagnostic performance for SCP in PWMI infants, and the combined node efficiency improves the diagnostic accuracy.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.

D002547 Cerebral Palsy A heterogeneous group of nonprogressive motor disorders caused by chronic brain injuries that originate in the prenatal period, perinatal period, or first few years of life. The four major subtypes are spastic, athetoid, ataxic, and mixed cerebral palsy, with spastic forms being the most common. The motor disorder may range from difficulties with fine motor control to severe spasticity (see MUSCLE SPASTICITY) in all limbs. Spastic diplegia (Little disease) is the most common subtype, and is characterized by spasticity that is more prominent in the legs than in the arms. Pathologically, this condition may be associated with LEUKOMALACIA, PERIVENTRICULAR.
