Hence, it has recently emerged as a major challenge in the assessment of patients with disorders of consciousness. Specifically, this review focuses on the prognostic implications of CMD detection during the acute stage of brain injury. CMD patients were identified in each diagnostic category (coma, unresponsive wakefulness syndrome\/vegetative state, minimally conscious state minus) with a relatively similar prevalence of around 20%. Current knowledge tends to indicate that the diagnosis of CMD in the acute phase often predicts a more favorable clinical outcome compared with other unresponsive non-CMD patients. Nevertheless, the review underscores the limited research in this domain, probably at least partially explained by its nascent nature and the lack of uniformity in the nomenclature for CMD-related disorders, hindering the impact of the literature in the field.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0044-1785507","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,11]],"date-time":"2024-04-11T23:12:22Z","timestamp":1712877142000},"page":"271-280","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Exploring the Significance of Cognitive Motor Dissociation on Patient Outcome in Acute Disorders of Consciousness"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Lejeune","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"DoC Care Unit, Centre Hospitalier Neurologique William Lennox, Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium"},{"name":"Institute of NeuroScience, UCLouvain, Brussels, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pauline","family":"Fritz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8537-2123","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paolo","family":"Cardone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emilie","family":"Szymkowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marie M.","family":"Vitello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charlotte","family":"Martial","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aurore","family":"Thibaut","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olivia","family":"Gosseries","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coma Science Group, GIGA-Consciousness, University of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"},{"name":"Centre du Cerveau, University Hospital of Li\u00e8ge, Li\u00e8ge, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"7753","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"734","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(72)90242-5","article-title":"Persistent vegetative state after brain damage.
