Cerebral lateralization and @entity73 after XXXX .

@entity1 @entity75 @entity73 @entity1269 @entity2414 @entity4764
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether and how handedness is related to the processes of cerebral lateralization and cognitive performance in @entity1 with congenital insult. Fifty-six @entity1 (31 males and 25 females) with @entity1269 and 14 control subjects were investigated. Of these @entity1 , 32 had a left hemisphere lesion, and 24 @entity1 had a right hemisphere lesion. There were 30 right-handed, 23 left-handed, and three ambidextrous @entity1 in the study group. The neuropsychologic assessment was performed using the NEPSY (a developmental neuropsychological assessment of @entity1 development) test battery. We found that 41% of the hemiparetic @entity1 and 72% of the @entity1 with a left hemisphere lesion were left-handed. In @entity1 contralateral to lesion handedness (no evidence of interhemispheric transfer of functions), we found diffuse @entity73 with @entity73 and poor visuomotor and narrative memory processing. In contrast, @entity1 with ipsilateral to @entity75 handedness (interhemispheric transfer of functions) demonstrated minimal or moderate side-specific @entity73 . Right-handed @entity1 with a right hemisphere lesion had attention, spatial, and short-term @entity2414 ; left-handed @entity1 with a left hemisphere lesion had receptive language and @entity4764 . Handedness combined with neuropsychologic assessment is a reliable indicator of the processes of cerebral reorganization after early brain insult.
