Intra- and Interjudge Reliability of the Apraxia of Speech Rating Scale in Early Stroke Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: For clinicians without expert knowledge of AOS and limited training using the ASRS, intra- and interjudge reliability of the ASRS is not satisfactory. Also, since some items in the protocol require a certain level of speech production to target the diagnostic marker, findings indicate that the ASRS in its present design has limitations in assessment of severe AOS. As suggested by Strand and colleagues, video examples that illustrate the ASRS characteristics could be one helpful alternative to support clinician training. A minor revision of response definitions of the scale may improve the applicability of the ...

Effects of acupuncture combined with Brunnstrom staging on upper-limb motor function, cerebral arterial blood flow velocity, and brain function remodeling after stroke
ConclusionAcupuncture combined with Brunnstrom staging is effective for patients after stroke. It can effectively improve the upper-limb motor function and cerebral artery blood flow velocity, promote brain function remodeling, and restore nerve function.

Post-stroke acquired childhood aphasia. A scoping review
Child Neuropsychol. 2022 Dec 22:1-26. doi: 10.1080/09297049.2022.2156992. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAphasia has a great impact on children's lives, with stroke being its most common and studied etiology. However, our knowledge about this disorder is limited, the studies on this topic are sparse, and a consensus regarding its definition is lacking. In particular, the interpretation of this condition varied over time: from the rigid description of the so-called "standard doctrine" to the adoption of adult models for post-stroke aphasia. Therefore, this review provides a critical overview of childhood aphasia after stroke...

Can enhancing left lateralization using transcranial direct current stimulation improve recovery from post-stroke aphasia?
One third of stroke victims suffer from aphasia, an acquired language disorder for which there are few effective medical treatments. Aphasia often does not resolve completely, resulting in substantial long-term disability. After a stroke that causes aphasia, the reorganization of language networks in the brain involves compensatory recruitment of brain tissue in the left hemisphere as well as potentially maladaptive recruitment of symmetric areas in the right hemisphere. One avenue for intervention might be to externally “left lateralize” the brain, enhancing activity of the left frontal lobe while inhibiting the right...

Altered resting-state network connectivity in stroke patients with and without apraxia of speech
Publication date: Available online 25 March 2015 Source:NeuroImage: Clinical Author(s): Anneliese B. New , Donald A. Robin , Amy L. Parkinson , Joseph R. Duffy , Malcom R. McNeil , Olivier Piguet , Michael Hornberger , Cathy J. Price , Simon B. Eickhoff , Kirrie J. Ballard Motor speech disorders, including apraxia of speech (AOS), account for over 50% of the communication disorders following stroke. Given its prevalence and impact, and the need to understand its neural mechanisms, we used resting state functional MRI to examine functional connectivity within a network of regions previously hypothesized as being associate...
