In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness and underlying recovery mechanisms of a virtual reality-based training program for the treatment of neglect syndrome in stroke patients in the chronic phase (more than three months after onset). Neglect is a neurological condition characterized by a failure to attend to stimuli presented on the side contralateral to a brain lesion, despite preserved visual acuity and visual fields. Patients with neglect commonly exhibit impairments in activities of daily living, including dressing, eating, grooming, reading, and writing, and are prone to collisions with objects on the neglected side. This syndrome is widely acknowledged as a significant negative prognostic indicator for functional recovery following stroke. Previous treatments for neglect syndrome have shown promising results. Pizzamiglio et al. reported the effectiveness of visuo-spatia
