Anosognosia in Parietal Lobe Syndrome

Consciousness and Cognition, 1995
Patients with right parietal lesions often deny their paralysis (anosognosia), but do they have "tacit" knowledge of their paralysis? I devised three novel tests to explore this. First, the patients were given a choice between a bimanual task (e.g., tying shoe laces) vs a unimanual one (e.g., threading a bolt).

The parietal lobe and the vestibular system

2018
The vestibular cortex differs in various ways from other sensory cortices. It consists of a network of several distinct and separate temporoparietal areas. Its core region, the parietoinsular vestibular cortex (PIVC), is located in the posterior insula and retroinsular region and includes the parietal operculum.

Parietal and Occipital Lobes

2021
Due to the primarily sensory roles of the parietal and occipital lobes they have not received anywhere near the investigative focus of the more cognitive- and limbic-involved regions. The research that has been published has been mostly on structural and functional imaging with some investigation of metabolic changes.

Somatosensory Function and The Parietal Lobe

2003
The parietal lobe is the middle lobe of the cerebrum, is found on the lateral surface of the hemisphere, and consists of postcentral gyrusa and superior and inferior parietal lobules. In this region of the cerebrum, one finds major functional differences between the left hemisphere which is dominant for language and the right hemisphere that is ...

The potential role of the parietal lobe in schizophrenia

Epidemiologia e Psichiatria Sociale, 2010
AbstractAlthough the anatomy of the parietal lobe has been under-investigated in schizophrenia, some magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown decreased volumes, suggesting its possible implication for the pathophysiology of the disease.

The Parietal Lobes

1990
The parietal lobe is commonly thought to be concerned predominantly with processing of somesthetic, kinesthetic, and proprioceptive information. Like the large expanse of tissue in the frontal portion of the brain, however, the parietal lobes are not homologous tissue but consist of cells that are responsive to a variety of divergent stimuli, including

Atrophy of the parietal lobe in preclinical dementia

Brain and Cognition, 2011
Cortical grey matter atrophy patterns have been reported in healthy ageing and Alzheimer disease (AD), but less consistently in the parietal regions of the brain. We investigated cortical grey matter volume patterns in parietal areas. The grey matter of the somatosensory cortex, superior and inferior parietal lobule was measured in 75 older adults (38 ...

Body and movement: Consciousness in the parietal lobes

Neuropsychologia, 2010
A critical issue related to the notion of identity concerns our ability to discriminate between internally and externally generated stimuli. This basic mechanism likely relies on perceptual and motor information, and requires that both motor plans and the resulting activity be continuously mapped on a reliable body representation.

Pain syndromes and the parietal lobe

2018
Pain was considered to be integrated subcortically during most of the 20th century, and it was not until 1956 that focal injury to the parietal opercular-insular cortex was shown to produce selective loss of pain senses. The parietal operculum and adjacent posterior insula are the main recipients of spinothalamic afferents in primates.

Body Image and the Parietal Lobes

CNS Spectrums, 2007
ABSTRACTIn this review, the history of the concept of the body image in neuropsychiatry is presented. Links between the parietal cortex and the body image are discussed and the possible role of the parietal lobe in psychiatric disorders noted. The link between parietal lobe function and some neurophilosophical concepts are introduced.
