Depression and Subthreshold Depression in Stroke-Related Aphasia
To investigate the prevalence of depression and subthreshold depression in persons with aphasia. To investigate whether there are linguistic and cognitive differences between those with depression, subthreshold depression, and no depression.

Non-linguistic cognitive factors predict treatment-induced recovery in chronic post-stroke aphasia
To determine if pre-treatment non-linguistic cognition predicted language treatment outcomes and if so, which specific non-linguistic cognitive subskills predicted naming therapy outcomes.

Urban-Rural Differences in Service Utilization and Costs of Care for Racial-Ethnic Groups Hospitalized with Post-Stroke Aphasia
The objective of this study was to use discharge-level hospital inpatient data to examine the influence of patient residence (rural vs. urban) and race-ethnicity on service utilization and cost of care among PWA.

Variables In Language Recovery Patterns During Inpatient Neuro-Rehabilitation
Aphasia affects as many as 40% of adults with stroke and is associated with increased morbidity, mortality and poorer quality of life. Despite its prevalence, clinical prognostication remains limited. While there is clear evidence to support the predictive value of both etiology of acquired brain injury and size of lesion for aphasia recovery, less is known about the influence of the non-dominant hemisphere and patient-specific factors. This poster highlights a retrospective analysis of language recovery of persons with aphasia (PWAs) during their stay in acute neuro-rehabilitation unit.

Carotid Artery Thrombus Caused by Severe Iron Deficiency Anemia Induced Reactive Thrombocytosis, Leading to Stroke in a Young Patient
We report a case of a 42 year old female with history of iron deficiency anemia (IDA),fibroid uterus, menorrhagia, thrombocytosis and cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in 2012 with no residual deficits, who presented with expressive aphasia and left sided hemiparesis concerning for a right middle cerebral artery infarct. Patient was found to be a candidate for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and received tPA within 60 minutes of arrival to the hospital with improvement in her symptoms.
