Associations among depression, demographic variables, and language impairments in chronic post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: The rate of depressive disorders in this sample was higher than rates of depression reported in the general stroke literature. Participant sex, age, and naming ability emerged as factors associated with depressive symptoms, though these links appear complex, especially given variable reports from prior research. Importantly, depressive symptoms do not appear to diminish over time for individuals with chronic aphasia. Given these results and the relatively limited documentation of depression in aphasia literature, depression remains a pressing concern for aphasia research and routine clinical care.PMID:36150239...

'Patient unable to express why he was on the floor, he has aphasia.' A content thematic analysis of medical records and incident reports on the falls of hospital patients with communication disability following stroke

It was difficult for staff to report the circumstances of the fall for patients with severe communication disability. Despite the recognition of communication as a potential contributing factor, few medical record entries documented strategies related to communication interventions to improve patients' ability to understand instructions, gain attention or communicate basi...

Language-Specific Dual-Task Effects After Stroke: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSIONS: Language-specific dual-task costs were identified in single word studies, especially those that focused on aphasia as well as half of the nonaphasia studies. Unlike single word studies, nearly all studies of discourse showed dual-task decrements on at least some variables.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.23605311.PMID:37418751 | DOI:10.1044/2023_JSLHR-23-00006

Non-speech oro-motor exercises in post-stroke dysarthria intervention: a randomized feasibility trial.
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: The results indicate positive outcomes associated with a short period of behavioural SLT intervention in the post-stroke dysarthria population. The inclusion of NSOMExs, delivered in accordance with standard clinical practice, did not appear to influence outcomes. The results must be viewed in relation to the nature of feasibility study and provide a foundation for suitably powered trials.

Preliminary evidence of the effects of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on swallowing functions in post-stroke individuals with chronic dysphagia.
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: The study showed that excitatory rTMS applied over the tongue motor cortex is a feasible approach in individuals with chronic post-stroke dysphagia. Further investigation with larger sample population is warranted to support the benefit of this stimulation protocol.
