The distribution of lesion location and frequency of single clinical symptom/sign between As-CMI and Larger RSSI groups. Basal ganglia (BG), thalamus, central semiovale (CS) and brainstem constituted 47.8%, 21.7%, 17.4% and 13% respectively in As-CMI subjects. No significant difference of lesion distribution was found between the two groups (A). In As-CMI, the most common neurological deficits was hemiparalysis (87%), followed by central facial/lingual palsy (43.5%) and hemidysesthesia (43.5%). No significant difference of symptoms/signs was found between the two groups except for a lower percentage of dysarthria in the As-CMI subjects (B). *Dysarthria (As-CMI 26.1% vs. Larger RSSI 54.4%, p = 0.008)
