From acute neglect to chronic constructional deficits: parietotemporal contributions to long-term post-stroke impairments.

ABSTRACT: Patients with acute hemispheric stroke exhibit various visuospatial impairments. While many recover rapidly, others remain impaired. Better defining which symptoms characterize the acute and chronic phases and which brain areas and connections are implicated could help to improve diagnostic and rehabilitation tools and inform effective rehabilitation strategies. Here, we report a systematic anatomo-functional study of two populations of acute and chronic hemispheric stroke patients (cross-sectional design). Patients were examined by a series of neuropsychological tests assessing different post-stroke clinical manifestations in the visuospatial domain. We first performed a statistical factorial analysis of patients' behavioural performance across tests to break down symptoms into coherent p
