Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil explored the cognitive disorder known as ideomotor apraxia. This disorder is typically caused by brain lesions resulting from strokes or tumors. The study analyzed data from 115 chronic stroke patients and used lesion-symptom mapping to identify the brain regions associated with difficulties in different types of actions. The findings revealed that specific brain regions were linked to different types of action deficits. The researchers also discussed the implications of their findings for understanding neuroplasticity and cortical reorganization in chronic stroke patients. [Extracted from the article]
