The effects of intensity on a phonological treatment for anomia in post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: Although replication in a larger sample is warranted, results suggest that PCA treatment is similarly efficacious when delivered at different intensities. Other factors related to the quality of treatment (i.e., active ingredients such as cue-generation) may play an important role in determining treatment efficacy and must also be considered when comparing treatment intensities.PMID:34166970 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2021.106125

Telerehabilitation for people with aphasia: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Although evidence is still insufficient to guide clinical decision making due to the relatively low quality of the evidence identified, the analysis of the results suggest that telerehabilitation training for aphasia seems to be as effective as the conventional face-to-face treatment.PMID:34052617 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2021.106111

Speech timing changes accompany speech entrainment in aphasia
CONCLUSION: Overall, findings provide further evidence of the impact of speech entrainment on measures of speech timing to help individuals with non-fluent aphasia to practice speaking more fluently. Practicing speaking more fluently may ultimately impact perceptual judgments of speech naturalness and social acceptance for persons with aphasia.PMID:33611108 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2021.106090

Working memory training in post-stroke aphasia: Near and far transfer effects.
CONCLUSION: Given the good generalizability of the WM training program on both WM and language performance, WM training is suggested as part of the rehabilitation program in aphasia. PMID: 33388697 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The feasibility, usability and acceptability of a tablet-based aphasia therapy in the acute phase following stroke.
CONCLUSION: The aphasia exercise program in 'STAPP' is feasible to use as an additional rehabilitation tool along with standard of care in the acute phase post-stroke. Further research is needed to assess the efficacy. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION-URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03679637. PMID: 33418143 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Slowed Compensation Responses to Altered Auditory Feedback in Post-Stroke Aphasia: Implications for Speech Sensorimotor Integration.
In this study, we aimed to address these issues by examining the behavioral correlates of speech sensorimotor impairment under altered auditory feedback (AAF) and their relationship with the impaired ability to independently correct for online errors during picture naming in people with aphasia. We found that people with aphasia generate slower vocal compensation response to pitch-shift AAF stimuli compared with controls. However, when the timing of responses was controlled for, no significant difference in the magnitude of vocal pitch compensation was observed between aphasia and control groups. Moreover, no relationship ...

The contrast between cueing and/or observation in therapy for verb retrieval in post-stroke aphasia.
CONCLUSIONS: Verb naming can be enhanced by semantic/phonological cueing. In addition, other studies (clinical, neuroimaging, etc.) are needed to document the effect of action observation for the treatment of verb anomia. Learning outcomes: The reader will be able to (1) describe semantic-phonological therapies used in post-stroke verb anomia, (2) describe sensorimotor therapies used in post-stroke verb anomia, and (3) identify factors contributing to the efficacy of therapies to improve action naming in aphasia.

The incidence, co-occurrence, and predictors of dysphagia, dysarthria, and aphasia after first-ever acute ischemic stroke.
Abstract Dysphagia, dysarthria and aphasia occur frequently following stroke. Our purpose was to identify the incidence, co-occurrence, and predictors of these impairments after first-ever ischemic stroke. We used the Registry of the Canadian Stroke Network's database (2003-2008) from one stroke center to identify a random sample of 250 patients with acute ischemic stroke confirmed by MR imaging. We further conducted a retrospective medical chart review. We established reliable data capture and identified the presence of the three impairments. We derived incidence and co-occurrence estimates along with 95% confide...
