Since Rossetti et al. (1998) reported that prism adaptation (PA) can lead to a substantial reduction of neglect symptoms PA has become a hot topic in neglect-research. More than 280 articles have been published in this area. Not all of those studies investigated the therapeutic potential of this technique, many studies examined the responsiveness to PA as a way to subdivide neglect into separate subsyndromes, other studies focussed on the process of PA itself in an effort to illuminate its underlying neurobiological mechanisms. In this article we will review research in all of these three areas to determine whether and to what extent research on PA in neglect patients has fulfilled its promise as a new way to improve the treatment of neglect, enhance our understanding of this complex syndrome and provide new insights into the neurobiology of sensorimotor learning.
自 Rossetti 等人(1998 年)报道棱镜适应(PA)可显著减轻忽视症状以来,PA 已成为忽视研究的热门话题。该领域已发表了 280 多篇文章。并非所有这些研究都探讨了该技术的治疗潜力,许多研究都将 PA 的反应性作为将忽视分为不同亚型的一种方法,其他研究则侧重于 PA 本身的过程,以阐明其潜在的神经生物学机制。在本文中,我们将回顾这三个领域的研究,以确定忽视患者的 PA 研究是否以及在多大程度上实现了其作为改善忽视治疗、加深对这种复杂综合征的理解并为感觉运动学习的神经生物学提供新见解的新方法的承诺。
