Ideal sources for Wikipedia's health content are defined in the guideline Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about Allochiria. PubMed provides review articles from the past five years (limit to free review articles) The TRIP database provides clinical publications about evidence-based medicine. Other potential sources include: Centre for Reviews and Dissemination and CDC

That section is unreadable. It lists two definitions that seem the same, yet says they are somehow different, but then says they are both the "true allochiria" contradicting the whole point. I might rewrite or delete the section if no one objects. Bhny (talk) 14:38, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The paragraph under "Diagnostic value" refers to diagnosis of "hysteria," but even the entry this link leads to says "Currently, most doctors practicing medicine do not accept hysteria as a medical diagnosis." Unless someone has a good reason for using archaic terminology instead of utilizing modern diagnostics, it seems like this section should be modified or deleted.

The source given is this 2004 paper in Cortex by Grossi et al. But what that has to do with hysteria is anyone's guess. That paragraph might as well refer to the screaming abdabs. Happy to see it removed, or at least the findings of Grossi et al described properly. We have no article for Dario Grossi. 86.187.238.241 (talk) 21:56, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
