Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Neglect is considered to be a deficit of visuospatial attention, which typically occurs in acute stroke patients. Chronic neglect patients were shown to have hyperexcitability of the left hemispheric structures that lead to the rightward bias of spatial attention. However, the difference in the functional state of the attention system between acute stroke patients with neglect (NGL) and without neglect (non-NGL) is still unknown. In the present study, we aimed at exploring this issue using functional MRI. Methods: We examined 26 healthy control subjects (30.3±7.3 years old) and 23 patients (67.23±1…
