Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) was defined 30 years ago as "a failure to report, respond, or orient to stimuli that are presented contralateral to a brain lesion, provided that this failure is not due to elementary sensory or motor disorders" by Heilman and Valenstein (1979). Even though this definition still holds, the last 30 years have been characterized by a profusion of clinical descriptions, neuroanatomical investigations and theoretical models of neglect. This article summarizes the wealth of neuroanatomical, clinical and experimental data concerning USN, by focusing on attentional and spatial deficits. Finally, some perspectives on neglect research are outlined.
30年前,海尔曼和瓦伦斯坦(1979年)将单侧空间忽视(USN)定义为“无法报告、回应或朝向大脑损伤对侧呈现的刺激,前提是这种失败并非由于基本的感觉或运动障碍”。尽管这一定义仍然适用,但在过去30年里,出现了大量关于忽视的临床描述、神经解剖学研究和理论模型。本文通过关注注意力和空间缺陷,总结了有关单侧空间忽视的丰富神经解剖学、临床和实验数据。最后,概述了忽视研究的一些前景。
