| Abstract |
Movement disorders are a recognized complication of stroke. Here we present a case of hemichorea-hemiballism (HCHB) after stroke. Basal ganglia and thalamus are typically recognized as sites responsible for HCHB. The MRI scan showed acute infarction which was unexpectedly present in both sides of corona radiate and cortex, but not in basal ganglia. This cortical HCHB could have evolved due to hypoperfusion of basal ganglia undetectable at the MRI scan or due to interruption of excitatory connections from the cerebral cortex to basal ganglia. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 February 2015.
All research outputs
#18,401,956
of 22,793,427 outputs
Outputs from Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics
#473
of 910 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#185,650
of 255,548 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics
#25
of 79 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,793,427 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 910 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.1. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 255,548 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 79 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
