Unilateral Spatial Neglect

open access: yes, 2022
Unilateral spatial neglect is a neuropsychological syndrome, more frequent after damage to the right cerebral hemisphere, featuring an impaired ability to orient toward the contralateral left side of space and the body, and the inability to detect and report events from that side, of which patients are not aware.

Spatial neglect

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2001
Neglect, a failure to attend or act in one part of space, is a common disturbance following cerebral lesions. This article outlines the signs and symptoms of neglect. Recent attempts to disentangle sensory/attentional from motor/intentional aspects of neglect are outlined. Neglect in directions other than the horizontal is discussed, as are directional

Spatial Neglect: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes
Spatial neglect is a specific syndrome in which there is unilateral brain injury, which is on one side of the brain and usually is related to stroke. Spatial neglect is most commonly in right hemisphere strokes, In the area that is around the middle cerebral artery and often can appear in as many as 80% of people in an acute stage.

Spatial neglect

2002
AbstractThis chapter provides a discussion of the history and mechanisms underlying spatial neglect. It also describes several neuropsychological mechanisms that have been hypothesized to account for hemispatial deficit, including deficits in attention, intention, and representation.

Size distortion in spatial neglect

NeuroReport, 2000
One of the suggested theories to explain some aspects of neglect in patients with right parietal lesions is the spatial distortion hypothesis. To determine whether a distorted representation of space can account for the performance of neglect patients in visuospatial tasks we asked 27 neglect patients to compare the width of two horizontally aligned ...

Spatial attention systems in spatial neglect

Neuropsychologia, 2015
It has been established that processes relating to 'spatial attention' are implemented at cortical level by goal-directed (top-down) and stimulus-driven (bottom-up) networks. Spatial neglect in brain-damaged individuals has been interpreted as a distinguished exemplar for a disturbance of these processes.

Electrostimulation Mapping of Spatial Neglect

Neurosurgery, 2011
Cortical and subcortical electrostimulation mapping during awake brain surgery for tumor removal is usually used to minimize deficits.To use electrostimulation to study neuronal substrates involved in spatial awareness in humans.Spatial neglect was studied using a line bisection task in combination with electrostimulation mapping of the right ...
