Immediate and delayed reaching in hemispatial neglect.
Milner and Goodale (The visual brain in action, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1995; The visual brain in action, 2nd ed., Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2006) propose a model of vision that makes a distinction between vision for perception and vision for action.

متن کاملPerispinal Etanercept for Post-Stroke Neurological and Cognitive Dysfunction: Scientific Rationale and Current Evidence
There is increasing recognition of the involvement of the immune signaling molecule, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), in the pathophysiology of stroke and chronic brain dysfunction. TNF plays an important role both in modulating synaptic function and in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain. Etanercept is a recombinant therapeutic that neutralizes pathologic levels of TNF. Brain imaging has demonstr...
متن کاملThe “eye sign” due to hemispatial neglect: A case report
Conjugate eye deviation is characterized by a sustained shift in horizontal gaze, usually toward the affected brain hemisphere. When detected on neuroimaging, it is called the "eye sign". It is classically associated with lesions involving the frontal eye fields, ipsilateral to the side of the deviation. Neglect may be conceptualized as a spatially addressed bias of the sensory events in explic...
