Sense of agency and its disturbances: A systematic review targeting the intentional binding effect in neuropsychiatric disorders. Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 2024; 78:3-18.

Abstract
Sense of agency (SoA) indicates a person's ability to perceive her/his own motor acts as actually being her/his and, through them, to exert control over the course of external events. Disruptions in SoA may profoundly affect the individual's functioning, as observed in several neuropsychiatric disorders. This is the first article to systematically review studies that investigated intentional binding (IB), a quantitative proxy for SoA measurement, in neurological and psychiatric patients. Eligible were studies of IB involving patients with neurological and/or psychiatric disorders. We included 15 studies involving 692 individuals. Risk of bias was low throughout studies. Abnormally increased action-outcome binding was found in schizophrenia and in patients with Parkinson's disease taking dopaminergic medications or reporting impulsive-compulsive behaviors. A decreased IB effect was observed in Tourette's disorder and functional movement disorders, whereas increased action-outcome binding was found in patients with the cortico-basal syndrome. The extent of IB deviation from healthy control values correlated with the severity of symptoms in several disorders. Inconsistent effects were found for autism spectrum disorders, anorexia nervosa, and borderline personality disorder. Findings pave the way for treatments specifically targeting SoA in neuropsychiatric disorders where IB is altered.

Abstract
Sensorimotor dysfunction of the fingers and hands hinders the recovery of motor function post-stroke. Generally, hemiplegic patients are unable to properly control the dynamic friction generated between their fingers and objects during hand/finger muscle activity. In addition to sensory information, a sense of agency generated by the temporal synchronization of sensory prediction and sensory feedback is required to control this dynamic friction. In the present study, we utilized a novel rehabilitation device that transmits real-time fingertip contact information to a transducer in a case of stroke hemiplegia with sensorimotor deficits and stagnated hand/finger motor performance. Post-intervention, the patient's upper extremity motor function score (FMA-UE), which had previously been in a state of arrested recovery, improved from 51/66 to 61/66, especially in the wrist joints. Excessive grip force during object grasping and frequency of falling objects was notably decreased post-intervention. We believe that rehabilitation tasks using perceptual generation via transducer will be a new tool for the rehabilitation of post-stroke hand/finger sensorimotor deficits.
