Identification of Brain Regions and Networks Critical to Poststroke Cognitive Impairment Through Lesion-symptom and Lesion Network Analyses

Puntos clave

• Cognitive impairment is associated with specific brain regions and networks post-stroke, impacting recovery efforts.
• Key evidence indicates that lesion-symptom and lesion network analyses reveal critical areas such as the prefrontal cortex.
• Observational analysis reveals underlying neural connections that relate to cognitive deficiencies after strokes.
• Understanding these networks may enable future targeted rehabilitation strategies for affected individuals.
