We investigated tactile awareness in three patients with tactile extinction of stimuli located on contralesional somatotopic space. Contralesional tactile awareness was enhanced when they gazed to the left and when they moved their limbs. We suggest that personal somatotopic and peripersonal space are integrated by polymodal and sensorimotor links, which allow us to be aware of and act effectively on stimuli in space.
我们研究了三名在对侧躯体感觉空间存在触觉消退的患者的触觉意识。当他们向左凝视以及移动肢体时,对侧触觉意识增强。我们认为,个人躯体感觉空间和周边个人空间通过多模态和感觉运动联系整合在一起,这使我们能够感知空间中的刺激并对其有效采取行动。
