Association between prism adaptation and auditory cues on spatial navigation in individuals with unilateral neglect
2020, Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation MedicinePosterior brain lesions selectively alter alpha oscillatory activity and predict visual performance in hemianopic patients
2019, CortexCitation Excerpt :Notably, evidence concerning the dominance of the right hemisphere are based on functional asymmetries observed in posterior parietal cortices and fronto-parietal networks (Corbetta & Shulman, 2002, 2011). In addition, the theories assuming a prominent role of the right hemisphere in visuo-spatial processing have been widely influenced by established clinical findings on the prevalence of spatial neglect after right hemisphere damage (Bisiach, Pizzamiglio, Nico, & Antonucci, 1996; Halligan, Fink, Marshall, & Vallar, 2003; Milner & McIntosh, 2005; Robertson, 2001). However, the lesions of the patients tested in this study involve mainly the occipital-temporal cortices and patients do not show clinical signs of neglect.
Ipsilesional deficit of selective attention in left homonymous hemianopia and left unilateral spatial neglect
2019, NeuropsychologiaCitation Excerpt :Therefore, it seems to be one of defective, and not enhanced, attention, but the nature of this deficit is still unclear. On the one hand, according to Robertson (1993, 2001), unilateral neglect would be very strongly associated with a fundamental loss of attentional capacity that may not be confined to one region of space, but could also involve the right ipsilesional space, meaning a non-lateralized attentional deficit. In this view, neglect patients suffer from a spatially nonselective component of attentional deficit that may be some form of basic arousal dysfunction.
The cingulate cortex and spatial neglect
2019, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :The anterior cingulate cortex is regarded as an essential regulating component of the alertness network and has also been associated with anticipation and preparation of attentional activity (LaBerge and Buchsbaum, 1990; Sturm et al., 1999; Thimm et al., 2006). Arousal and persistence deficits (distinct from perseveration or motor impersistence deficits that are spatial asymmetric) are closely related to the deficits of spatial neglect and commonly cooccur with the spatial neglect syndrome (Robertson, 2001). Generalized body hypokinesia is also a clinical sign cooccurring with spatial Aiming neglect (Riestra and Barrett, 2013).
