Assessing Self-Reported Mood in Aphasia Following Stroke: Challenges, Innovations and Future Directions
Assessment of mood is critical in determining rehabilitation outcomes for stroke and other acquired brain injury, yet a common consequence of such injuries is aphasia, where language is impaired. Consequently, the use of language-based measures in this population is often not possible. Following a critical review of the neuropsychological aspects of self-reported mood, this paper evaluates the problems in reporting mood after stroke due to aphasia, and discusses implications for the design of adapted instruments.

COVID-19 encephalitis with SARS-CoV-2 detected in cerebrospinal fluid presenting as a stroke mimic
We report the case of a 35-year-old male with COVID-19 encephalitis presenting as a stroke mimic with sudden-onset expressive and receptive dysphasia, mild confusion and right arm incoordination. The patient received thrombolysis for a suspected ischaemic stroke, but later became febrile and SARS-CoV-2 was detected in cerebrospinal fluid. Electroencephalography demonstrated excess in slow waves, but neuroimaging was reported as normal. Respiratory symptoms were absent throughout and nasopharyngeal swab was negative for SARS-CoV-2.

Acceptability, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of low-moderate intensity Constraint Induced Aphasia Therapy and Multi-Modality Aphasia Therapy in chronic aphasia after stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Low-moderateintensity CIAT-Plus and M-MAT were feasible and acceptable. Both interventions show preliminary efficacy at a low-moderate intensity. These results support a powered trial investigating these interventions at a low-moderate intensity.PMID:37036031 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2196765

A right convergence area of the prefrontal lobe is involved in the improvement of semantic fluency in patients with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSION: The improvement of semantic fluency in subacute PSA patients may require the participation of the right convergence area of the prefrontal lobe.PMID:37651207 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2253632

P013/117 A case of delayed post-hypoxic leukoencephalopathy after ischemic stroke
ConclusionThis case illustrates that the manifestation of clinical symptoms and morphological alterations observed on MRI, indicative of DPHL, may not exclusively result from global hypoxia. Rather, such changes can also manifest in patients with a large vessel occlusion within the corresponding vascular territories.Disclosure of InterestNothing to disclose

Supporting Autonomy for People with Aphasia: Use of the Life Interests and Values (LIV) Cards.
Conclusions: PWA were able to provide information about their current and preferred involvement in life activities through use of the LIV Cards. Family members did not predict activity choices and desires of PWA with full accuracy. The LIV Cards appear to be a viable tool for setting goals and discussing life priorities of PWA.

New Frontiers In Trauma And Stroke Recovery: Teaching The Brain To Speak Again
Cynthia Thompson, a world-renowned researcher on stroke and brain damage, discussed her groundbreaking research on aphasia and the neurolinguistic systems it affects at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). An estimated one million Americans suffer from aphasia, affecting their ability to understand and/or produce spoken and/or written language. Thompson, Northwestern's Ralph and Jean Sundin Professor of Communication Sciences, participated in a media briefing on "Tools for Regaining Speech" at the Hynes Convention Center...
