Low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to the right Broca mirror area for improving auditory comprehension in a  sensory aphasia after stroke: a case report
This study reported one stroke patient with sensory aphasia who received 6 treatment sessions of low-frequency rTMS before speech and language therapy. The target area was the Broca mirror area in the right hemisphere. After treatment, the auditory comprehension of the patient improved from 46 to 112, the naming improved from 18 to 32, and the AQ improved from 34.2 to 42.6. However, the level of functional language, spontaneous speech and repetition did not show obvious improvement.PMID:35950478 | DOI:10.5114/fn.2022.118188

Quality of Communication Life (QoCL) In Persons with Expressive Aphasia With And Without Communication Intervention & #8211; A Comparative Study
Conclusions: The results prove that communication intervention is necessary for PwAs to improve QoCL and can be used to raise awareness of its importance. The findings can also guide treatment planning, counseling the PwA, and caregivers. It also indicates the importance of using patient-related outcome measures during the intervention process.

Efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in treating stroke aphasia: Systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the rTMS technique can enhance rehabilitation of language skills in post-stroke aphasia when administered according to the established safety parameters.SIGNIFICANCE: Our results have implications for treatment of post-stroke aphasia. In subacute aphasia, low frequency rTMS over right BA45 improved naming, repetition, speech fluency and writing but not comprehension, whereas in chronic aphasia naming and speech production improved, but repetition and comprehension showed smaller gains.PMID:35606322 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2022.04.017
