Progress in the clinical application of constraint-induced therapy following stroke since 2014
Stroke is a group of cerebrovascular diseases with high prevalence and mortality rate. Stroke can induce many impairments, including motor and cognitive dysfunction, aphasia/dysarthria, dysphagia, and mood disorders, which may reduce the quality of life among the patients. Constraint-induced therapy has been proven to be an effective treatment method for stroke rehabilitation. It has been widely used in the recovery of limb motor dysfunction, aphasia, and other impairment like unilateral neglect after stroke. In recent years, constraint-induced therapy can also combine with telehealth and home rehabilitation. In addition, ...

Case report: Young-onset large vessel ischemic stroke due to hyperhomocysteinemia associated with the C677T polymorphism on 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and multi-vitamin deficiency
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an important risk factor for cerebral infarction. Herein, we report on a 30-year-old man previously diagnosed with epilepsy who presented with right hemiplegia and total aphasia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a fronto-temporal ischemic lesion due to occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery. Clinical testing and imaging demonstrated that he had hyperhomocysteinemia induced by multiple factors including the C677T polymorphism on 5.10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), and multiple vitamin deficiencies. The C677T polymorphism on MTHFR is closely related to hyperhomocysteinemia and fol...

Abnormal resting-state function within language network and its improvement among post-stroke aphasia
Behav Brain Res. 2023 Feb 11:114344. doi: 10.1016/j.bbr.2023.114344. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeveral studies with resting-state magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) have examined functional impairments and plasticity within language network in patients with post-stroke aphasia (PSA). However, there is still ubiquitous inconsistency across these studies, partly due to restricted to very small sample size and the absence of validation with follow-up data. In the current study, we aimed at providing relatively strong evidence to support functional impairments and its reorganization in PSA. Here, the amplitude of low fre...

Neuroanatomical correlates of macrostructural receptive abilities in narrative discourse in unilateral left hemisphere stroke: A behavioural and voxel-based morphometry study
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: The present results suggest that retelling and comprehension of auditory and written narratives are relatively well-preserved in individuals with a LH stroke without significant aphasia, but poorer than in HC. The findings replicate previous studies conducted in groups with higher levels of education and SES both at the behavioural and neural levels. Considering that naming seems to be associated with narrative retell and comprehension in individuals with lower SES and education, this research provides evidence on the importance of pursuing further studies including larger samples with and witho...

Rescue Extracranial –Intracranial Bypass for Ischemic Stroke Secondary to Progressive Human Immunodeficiency Virus–Associated Vasculopathy
Conclusion This is the first case of STA-MCA bypass performed in a patient with recurrent ischemic stroke caused by HIV-associated vasculopathy. Although further evidence is needed, such treatment options can shed new light on the management of progressive HIV-associated vasculopathy, which is refractory to maximal medical treatment.
