Abstract:The concept of structural reserve in stroke reorganization assumes that the functional role of the contralesional hemisphere strongly depends on the brain tissue spared by the lesion in the affected hemisphere. Recent studies, however, have indicated that the impact of the contralesional hemisphere exhibits region-specific variability with concurrently existing maladaptive and supportive influences exerted by distinct contralesional regions. These findings challenge the concept of structural reserve's uniform … Show more
