TL;DR: The asymmetrical global distraction during segment bisection might be related to the right hemisphere’s dominance in mediating global attention and allocating attention leftward and in contrast, the asymmetrical focal distraction during full-line bisectionmight berelated to the left hemisphere‘s dominanceIn mediating focal attention andallocating attention toward the right.

TL;DR: It is concluded that neurobiological factors strongly underpin reduced autobiographic functions in patients with early-onset epilepsy.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the previously recognized dysfunction of the right fronto-subcortical attentional network in dialyzed patients might account for the results of the current study.

TL;DR: A successful kidney transplant can improve patients’ abnormal leftward allocation of spatial attention, however, future studies are needed to better understand the mechanisms of this spatial attentional bias in hemodialyzed individuals and the normalization of bias following transplantation.

TL;DR: A lefthanded man with bilateral hemispheric lesions, larger in the left than right hemisphere and involving the frontal lobes, who demonstrates neglect when performing both horizontal and radial line bisections is reported.
