Inclusion of people with aphasia in stroke trials: a systematic search and review
Although people with aphasia (PwA) represent 30% of stroke survivors, they are frequently excluded from stroke research, or their inclusion is unclear. Such practice significantly limits the generalisability of stroke research, increases the need to duplicate research in aphasia-specific populations, and raises important ethical and human rights issues.

Cerebral Small Vessel Disease burden: An independent biomarker for anomia treatment responsiveness in chronic stroke patients with aphasia
To determine whether MRI-based cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) burden predicts treatment-induced aphasia recovery in chronic stroke patients above and beyond initial aphasia severity and stroke-lesion volume.

Examining dose frameworks to improve aphasia rehabilitation research
The effect of treatment dose on recovery of post-stroke aphasia is not well understood. Inconsistent conceptualisation, measurement, and reporting of the multiple dimensions of dose hinders efforts to evaluate dose-response relationships in aphasia rehabilitation research. We review the state of dose conceptualisation in aphasia rehabilitation and compare the applicability of three existing dose frameworks to aphasia rehabilitation research – the Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type principle (FITT), the Cumulative Intervention Intensity (CII) framework, and the Multidimensional Dose Articulation Framework (MDAF).

Constraint-Induced Language Therapy for Aphasia: Evidence from Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses
Constraint induced language therapy (CILT) is an aphasia treatment that incorporates use-dependent principles to facilitate language recovery in stroke-induced aphasia (Pulvermuller et al., 2001). Several systematic reviews (SR) have been conducted to summarize the growing CILT literature. The purpose of this project was to appraise the quality and examine the weight of treatment evidence reported in CILT SRs.

Towards the consistent inclusion of people with aphasia in stroke research irrespective of discipline
People with aphasia have been systematically excluded from stroke research or included without the necessary modifications, threatening external study validity. In this paper, we propose that 1) the inclusion of people with aphasia should be considered as standard in stroke research irrespective of discipline and that 2) modifications should be made to stroke research procedures to support people with aphasia to achieve meaningful and valid inclusion. We argue that outright exclusion of this heterogenous population from stroke research based purely on a diagnosis of aphasia is rarely required and present a rationale for de...

Return to Work for People With Aphasia
Right now, about 2.5 million people in the United States are living with aphasia after stroke.1 Aphasia can make it difficult to talk, listen, read, and/or write. Stroke is the most common cause of aphasia, but it can also happen after a traumatic brain injury (eg, blow to the head), a brain tumor, brain infection, or a neurodegenerative disease (eg, Alzheimer's dementia).2 Many people with aphasia are of working age, and this number is going up as more young people in the United States are sustaining stroke.

Supportive Communication for Individuals with Aphasia
Aphasia is a language disorder that affects speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Aphasia is most commonly caused by a stroke or injury to the left side of the brain. Brain tumors and other neurologic diseases can also cause aphasia. Because of language impairments, individuals with aphasia struggle to participate in daily life activities involving communication in health care settings, at home, or in their community.1 People with aphasia and their communication partners can use supportive strategies to help them communicate in daily life.

Aphasia FAQs for the Rehabilitation Professional
Aphasia is a communication impairment that results from injury or damage to the left side of the brain. It may occur after a stroke, brain injury, or other neurologic condition. Aphasia refers to loss of language abilities. It can result in difficulty speaking, listening, reading, or writing. Many individuals also have difficulty repeating things spoken to them, although some people with aphasia can completely mimic utterances, leading those around them to assume greater language abilities than they have.

Aphasia-accessible Spatial Neglect Care
To learn whether the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS) via the Kessler Foundation Neglect Assessment Process, and prism adaptation therapy (PAT; Barrett and Houston, 2019) provided aphasia-accessible spatial neglect care, in a left-handed, Cambodian-speaking stroke survivor (55 years) with right spatial neglect and global aphasia. Right-sided spatial neglect affects up to 50% of left brain stroke survivors, however many are never diagnosed or treated. A therapist can encounter great difficulty instructing people with communication disability (aphasia) during neglect assessment and treatment.
