Aphasia and swallowing problems in subjects with incident stroke in rural northern Tanzania: a case-control study.
Conclusions: This is the first attempt to describe aphasia incidence in a sub-Saharan African language. Further work on the psychometric properties of the screening instrument is warranted. Given that it delivers a relatively coarse indication of language disturbance, it is likely that incidence of aphasia in the current cohort is underestimated. PMID: 24521840 [PubMed - in process]
