Abstract

The prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases is on the rise due to the aging global population, leading to a significant increase in cognitive impairments characterized by progressive neuronal degeneration. Within these impairments, both spatial and non-spatial attention deficits have emerged as critical features that profoundly impact the quality of life. Spatial attention, crucial for the selective processing of sensory information, involves intricate neural networks, including the parietal and frontal lobes. This review, based on a narrative literature review, synthesizes current research on the neuropathological foundations of spatial and non-spatial attention deficits in various neurodegenerative diseases.
