Rats permitted unrestrained movement in a patterned visual environment during the interval between two-stage vilateral lesions of the visual cortex reacquire a preoperatively learned pattern discrimination. Rats passively transported through the identical visual environment do not. This is the first demonstration that interoperative self-produced locomotion is essential for recovery of function in the visual system.
在视觉皮层进行两阶段双侧损伤的间隔期，允许在有图案的视觉环境中自由活动的大鼠重新获得术前习得的图案辨别能力。而被动地被运送通过相同视觉环境的大鼠则不能。这首次证明了术中自我产生的运动对视觉系统功能恢复至关重要。
