Objective:

To examine motor-learning function after subarachnoid hemorrhage using quantitative GABA magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Approach:

• Study Design: The study utilized quantitative GABA magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess motor learning in the motor cortex.

Key Findings:

• Inaccuracies were identified in the reported age, WFNS grade, and GABA measurement values for coiling cases, as noted in the investigation.
• The MRI scanner used for data collection is no longer available, preventing data correction.
• The article's conclusions are no longer supported by the data, as confirmed by an investigation.

Interpretation:

The authors requested retraction due to serious problems detected post-publication, which were confirmed by an investigation conducted under Frontiers’ policies.

Limitations:

• Data inaccuracies prevent reliable conclusions.
• Outdated data cannot be corrected due to the unavailability of the MRI scanner.

Conclusion:

The article was retracted with consent from the authors and approval from the editorial team.
