Neural Mechanisms of Embodiment: Asomatognosia Due to Premotor Cortex Damage
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Patients with asomatognosia generally describe parts of their body as missing or disappeared from corporeal awareness. This disturbance is generally attributed to damage in the right posterior parietal cortex. However, recent neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies suggest that corporeal awareness and embodiment of body parts are instead linked to the premotor cortex of both hemispheres. PATIENT: We describe a patient with asomatognosia of her left arm due to damage in the right premotor and motor cortices. The patient's pathological embodiment for her left arm was associated with mild left somatosensory loss, mild frontal dysfunction, and a behavioral deficit in the mental imagery of human arms. CONCLUSION: Asomatognosia may also be associated with damage to the right premotor cortex.

In the citing paper
“This proposal fits with the evidence that vPMc lesions induce disorders of bodily awareness, such as anosognosia for hemiplegia (i.e.lack of awareness of motor deficits in the contralesional limbs; Berti et al., 2005) and asomatognosia (i.e.lack of awareness of parts on one's own body; Arzy, Overney, , & Blanke, 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
