The effects of vestibular stimulation on extrapersonal and personal neglect and on awareness of disease were investigated in four patients with severe neglect and anosognosia. Neglect phenomena improved in all patients, while an effect on anosognosia was found in two cases. These preliminary findings indicate a possible role of vestibular stimulation on hemispheric activation.
对四名患有严重忽视症和疾病感缺失症的患者,研究了前庭刺激对个人空间外和个人忽视以及对疾病认知的影响。所有患者的忽视现象均有改善,而在两例患者中发现了对疾病感缺失症的影响。这些初步研究结果表明前庭刺激在半球激活方面可能发挥作用。
