DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.106816
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Patients with brain tumors frequently present neurocognitive deficits. Aiming at better understanding the impact of tumor localization on neurocognitive processes, we evaluated neurocognitive function prior to glioma surgery within one of four specific regions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2017.09.030
Abstract: Abstract During neurorehabilitation, the re‐learning of motor sequences is crucial for patients with motor deficits, enabling them to master again complex movements. A recent study showed that patients with left hemisphere (LH) stroke exhibited preserved… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2019.107287
Abstract: The human brain has a remarkable capacity to focus processing resources based on the features and the relevance of the task at hand. The two cerebral hemispheres contribute differentially to this capacity, with the left… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.paid.2018.07.020
Abstract: Abstract Prior investigations of selective attention using the Stroop task have indicated individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits show reduced Stroop interference only when there is spatial separation of conflicting information. However, theories of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/emo0000554
Abstract: The right hemisphere plays a critical role in visuospatial attention and emotional perception, particularly for negative emotions. Therefore, preferential processing of emotional stimuli by the right, compared to the left, hemisphere could enhance our memory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-07607-9
Abstract: Many stroke survivors with aphasia in the acute period experience spontaneous recovery within the first six months after the stroke. However, approximately 30–40% sustain permanent aphasia and the factors determining incomplete recovery are unclear. Suboptimal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/schbul/sbaa031.203
Abstract: Abstract Background Mismatch negativity (MMN) is an event-related potential (ERP) that is severely impaired in long-term schizophrenia. However, though largely debated, numerous electroencephalography (EEG) studies suggest that MMN is less reduced in individuals at their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000006738
Abstract: Objective To investigate whether different language deficits are distinguished by the relative strengths of their association with the functional connectivity (FC) at rest of the language network (LN) and cingulo-opercular network (CON) after aphasic stroke.… read more here.

Inference comprehension in text reading: Performance of individuals with right- versus left-hemisphere lesions and the influence of cognitive functions
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "PLoS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0197195
Abstract: Background Right-hemisphere lesions (RHL) may impair inference comprehension. However, comparative studies between left-hemisphere lesions (LHL) and RHL are rare, especially regarding reading comprehension. Moreover, further knowledge of the influence of cognition on inferential processing in… read more here.
