Lateropulsion in Right-Sided Stroke: Brain Anatomical Correlates of Severity and Duration

CONCLUSION: LP-relevant areas are located in the multisensory network. Areas of the frontoparietal network, which are related to spatial cognition, memory, and attention, were found to be relevant for duration and severity. The findings, especially those regarding duration involving the middle temporal cortex, could explain the better intervention outcomes for methods based more on implicit than on explicit knowledge of verticality.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1 available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A433).PMID:37306456 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000446
