Self-processing in coma, unresponsive wakefulness syndrome and minimally conscious state [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionBehavioral and cerebral dissociation has been now clearly established in some patients with acquired disorders of consciousness (DoC). Altogether, these studies mainly focused on the preservation of high-level cognitive markers in prolonged ...

Is the “Minimally Conscious State” Patient Minimally Self-Aware? [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
Patients in a Minimally Conscious State (MCS) constitute a subgroup of awareness impaired patients who show minimal signs of awareness as opposed to patients in a Vegetative State who do not exhibit any such signs.

Altered brain functional connectivity in vegetative state and minimally conscious state [PDF]

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectivesThe pathological mechanism for a disorder of consciousness (DoC) is still not fully understood. Based on traditional behavioral scales, there is a high rate of misdiagnosis for subtypes of DoC.

Altered functional connectivity and regional brain activity in a triple-network model in minimally conscious state and vegetative-state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome patients: A resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging study. [PDF]

Front Behav Neurosci, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in functional connectivity and regional brain activity between and within the default mode network (DMN), salience network (SN), and executive control network (ECN) among individuals with disorders of ...
