A pilot economic evaluation of a feasibility trial for SUpporting wellbeing through PEeR-Befriending (SUPERB) for post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: Economic data can be collected from participants with post-stroke aphasia, indicating a full economic evaluation within a definitive trial is feasible. A larger study is needed to demonstrate further cost-effectiveness of peer-befriending.PMID:35108114 | DOI:10.1177/02692155211063554

Investigation of the implementation of a Communication Enhanced Environment model on an acute/slow stream rehabilitation and a rehabilitation ward: A before-and-after pilot study
CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of a Communication Enhanced Environment model was feasible in this specific setting and may potentially influence patients' engagement in language activities. The unforeseen contextual challenges that occurred during the study period demonstrate the challenging nature of the hospital environment and will be useful in future research planning.PMID:34749509 | DOI:10.1177/02692155211032655

Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on aphasia in stroke patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: rTMS may be relatively effective and safe for aphasia patients after stroke. However, these findings should be treated with caution due to high heterogeneity and potential biases.PMID:33706572 | DOI:10.1177/0269215521999554

Melodic intonation therapy in post-stroke nonfluent aphasia: a randomized pilot trial.
CONCLUSION: Melodic Intonation Therapy might have a positive effect on the communication skills of stroke survivors with nonfluent aphasia as measured by the CAL questionnaire. A full-scale trial with at least 27 patients per group is necessary to confirm these results. PMID: 30056747 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A systematic review of the impact of stroke on social support and social networks: Associated factors and patterns of change.
CONCLUSION: Following a stroke non-kin contact is vulnerable, strain is observed within the family unit, and poor social support is associated with depressive symptoms. PMID: 26330297 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Identifying depression post-stroke in patients with aphasia: A systematic review of the reliability, validity and feasibility of available instruments.
CONCLUSION: A number of instruments to assess depressive symptoms in patients with aphasia are available. None of the instruments however, were found to be sufficiently investigated and most of the studies identified were of low methodological quality. Given the present evidence, the Stroke Aphasic Depression Questionnaire-10, the Stroke Aphasic Depression Questionnaire-H10 and the Signs of Depression Scale are the most feasible and can be recommended for clinical practice.

Cost analysis of the Communication and Low Mood (CALM) randomised trial of behavioural therapy for stroke patients with aphasia.
CONCLUSION: Overall the behavioural therapy was found to improve mood and resulted in some encouraging savings in resource utilisation over the six months follow-up. PMID: 24942481 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
