Lesion site: F = Frontal, T = Temporal, P = Parietal, O = Occipital, SC = Subcortical; Days since surgery/operation: number indicates days since stroke or operation, pre-op = preoperative.
Neglect tests: (A) Figure copying, scores range from 0 (no omissions) to 4 [several left-sided omissions, see Azouvi et al. (2002) for details], cut-off point >0; (B) “Bells task” (Gauthier et al., 1989), score gives number of left minus right-sided omissions, cut-off point >2; (C) LB dev% = Line Bisection deviation in % from true half, positive values denote rightward deviations, cut-off point > 6.5; (D) Reading, cut-off point > 0 left-sided omission; (E) five-point-test = figural fluency task (Regard et al., 1982), cut-off point > 0 omission of left-sided columns. Cut-off scores for the neglect tests A–D as defined in Azouvi et al. (2002); for test E as in Vuilleumier et al. (2004). Tests above cut-off-point are gray-colored. NA = Not available.
