Review of transcranial direct current stimulation in poststroke recovery.
Abstract Motor impairment, dysphagia, aphasia, and visual impairment are common disabling residual deficits experienced by stroke survivors. Recently, many novel rehabilitative modalities have been investigated for their potential to ameliorate such deficits and to improve functional outcomes. Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), have emerged as a promising tool to facilitate stroke recovery. tDCS can alter cortical excitability to induce brain plasticity by modulating the lesioned, contralesional, or bilateral hemispheres with various stimulation modali...

Memantine Treatment for Post-stroke Aphasia: A Case Control Study (P5.173)
CONCLUSION Memantine treatment showed no statistically significant improvement for patients with post-stroke aphasia based on FIM Scores for Motor and Cognition. Long-term follow-up and larger study groups, however, could provide additional information which may warrant further exploration into the benefits of memantine.Disclosure: Dr. Valles has nothing to disclose.

Stroke vision, aphasia, neglect (VAN) assessment--a novel emergent large vessel occlusion screening tool: pilot study and comparison with current clinical severity indices
Conclusions The VAN screening tool accurately identified ELVO patients and outperformed a NIHSS ≥6 severity threshold and may best allow clinical teams to expedite care and mobilize resources for ELVO patients. A larger study to both validate this screening tool and compare with others is warranted.

Coprolalia in aphasic patients with stroke: a longitudinal observation from the BLAS2T database.
This report discusses linguistic performance in four cases from the BLAS2T database who demonstrated coprolalia as an irresistible urge to say obscene words.  Coprolalia was found to partly resolve in a 30-day follow-up in three cases. Recognition of coprolalia and language recovery patterns in bilingual aphasic patients with stroke would potentially lead to their even better individualized care and neurolinguistic/cognitive rehabilitation.

A phase II randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an education program on speech-language pathologist' self-efficacy, and self-rated competency for counselling to support psychological wellbeing in people with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: The demonstrated feasibility and preliminary efficacy of this online counseling program warrant a future definitive trial.PMID:36440678 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2145736
