When Task is Huge but Time is Short! An Interesting Case of Stroke Thrombolysis
Debabrata Chakraborty, Suvadip Maiti, Sadanand Dey, Sanjay BhaumikNeurology India 2023 71(3):552-554
A 64-year-old gentleman, diabetic, and smoker attended the emergency room (ER) with acute stroke. He had expressive aphasia with right upper limb weakness. His blood pressure was extremely high, and he presented in the final half an hour of the permissible window period for thrombolysis. Bringing down his blood pressure to make him eligible for the procedure within the available time was a real challenge for us. Fortunately, we succeeded in our attempt and he gradually improved. Truly, the maximum blood pressure allowable ...

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

Development of bedside aphasia battery in tamil (BAB-T)
Divya Sivagnanapandian, Preethi Shanmuga, Jasmine Lydia SelvarajAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2022 25(6):1138-1146
Bedside Aphasia Battery in Tamil (BAB-T) was developed for assessing the linguistic abilities of Tamil-speaking individuals following an acquired brain injury. Method: The conception of the test took place in two phases: Phase 1 was the development of the Bedside Aphasia Battery in Tamil (BAB-T) and phase 2 administration of the test battery in neurotypical adults and patients with aphasia. A Delphi panel was constructed based on selected experts from the field of neuro-communication disorders and lin...

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.

A Rare Pathologic Collecting and Hoarding Behavior Following Left Middle Cerebral Artery Territory Infarction
Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of punding following an ischemic stroke at the caudate nucleus. Our case strengthens the hypothetical pathophysiology of punding, which may involve not only direct dopaminergic stimulation but also the dysregulation of the dopamine system.

Where are we now with aphasia after stroke ?
Pam Enderby, Laura SuttonAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2020 23(8):57-62
Objective: To provide a brief review of research literature relating to the current state of knowledge regarding speech and language therapy for people with aphasia and place these research findings within the context of outcome data of non-selected patients receiving usual therapy in the UK. Methods: Part 1 presents a literature search aimed at exploring up-to-date information related to the nature and evolution of aphasia, the impact of therapy and the changing nature of therapy. This provides the context of what may be achieved in rehabilit...

Language breakdown in primary progressive aphasias
Amitabha GhoshAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2020 23(8):67-72
Dementias with predominant language involvement, called primary progressive aphasias provide us with unique insight into systematic breakdown of language in neurodegenerative diseases and the structures and networks involved. Clinical and neuroimaging models quite distinct from those seen in stroke aphasias have evolved. In this short overview, we will discuss the cognitive processes involved in expressive and receptive verbal communication and how these processes are affected in the different variants of primary progressive aphasia producing distinctive...

A review of biological interventions in chronic aphasia
E Susan Duncan, Aswathy Anakkathil Pradeep, Steven L SmallAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2020 23(8):82-94
Aphasia is a common and debilitating condition following stroke. While the gold standard for aphasia treatment is behavioral speech-language therapy, benefits remain modest in chronic stages of recovery. This limitation motivates the pursuit of novel interventions for chronic aphasia. Here, we review biological approaches that have been used (or proposed for use, in the case of regenerative and genetic therapies) to treat chronic aphasia. These techniques aim to ameliorate the deficits of aphasia by directly ma...

Development and validation of a comprehensive neuropsychological and language rehabilitation for stroke survivors: A home-based caregiver-delivered intervention program
Conclusions: This intervention can be feasible to administer as a home-based intervention and may help to alleviate language and neuropsychological complaints after stroke in low-literate or mixed-cultural populations. Further, large sample size studies are recommended.

A screening tool to detect stroke aphasia: Adaptation of frenchay aphasia screening test (FAST) to the Indian context
Conclusions: The Indian version of FAST was found to be a reliable and valid bedside screening tool for aphasia in stroke patients. We aim that this study will facilitate the use of the test across other Indian languages and a large clinical population in the future.
