Behaviorally-Oriented Intensive Aphasia Program: Collaboration Leads to Optimal Outcomes
Semin Speech Lang. 2022 Sep 12. doi: 10.1055/s-0042-1756272. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAphasia is an acquired disorder affecting all language components across modalities. While common therapeutic approaches can result in some improvements, multiple studies establish that intensive therapeutic interventions are most effective; however, these approaches are not well defined. In addition, behaviorally-oriented approaches have been shown to be effective for other conditions, but have not yet been introduced to the treatment of aphasia. The purpose of the current study was to examine the efficacy of a novel, behaviorally-o...

Identifying an Appropriate Picture Stimulus for a Bangla Picture Description Task
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that a culturally related high-context color photograph is the optimal choice for the Bangla PDT. This study also indicates reduced fluency, grammatical complexity, and syntactic complexity in healthy Bangla-speaking adults aged 65 years and above.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.22233664.PMID:36947697 | DOI:10.1044/2022_JSLHR-22-00152

Effect and safety of C7 neurotomy at the intervertebral foramen in patients with chronic poststroke aphasia: a multicentre, randomised, controlled study protocol
This study will explore the efficacy of NC7 at the intervertebral foramen for improving chronic poststroke aphasia. Methods and analysis This study protocol reports a multicentre, randomised, assessor-blinded active-controlled trial. A total of 50 patients with chronic poststroke aphasia for over 1 year and with a aphasia quotient calculated by Western Aphasia Battery Aphasia Quotient (WAB-AQ) score below 93.8 will be recruited. Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups (25 individuals each) to receive NC7 plus intensive speech and language therapy (iSLT), or iSLT alone programme. The primary outcome is the ...

Turning the Spotlight to Cholinergic Pharmacotherapy of the Human Language System
AbstractEven though language is essential in human communication, research on pharmacological therapies for language deficits in highly prevalent neurodegenerative and vascular brain diseases has received little attention. Emerging scientific evidence suggests that disruption of the cholinergic system may play an essential role in language deficits associated with Alzheimer ’s disease and vascular cognitive impairment, including post-stroke aphasia. Therefore, current models of cognitive processing are beginning to appraise the implications of the brain modulator acetylcholine in human language functions. Future work sho...
