Semantic network activation facilitates oral word reading in chronic aphasia
Brain Lang. 2022 Aug 4;233:105164. doi: 10.1016/j.bandl.2022.105164. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPeople with aphasia often show partial impairments on a given task. This trial-to-trial variability offers a potential window into understanding how damaged language networks function. We test the hypothesis that successful word reading in participants with phonological system damage reflects semantic system recruitment. Residual semantic and phonological networks were defined with fMRI in 21 stroke participants with phonological damage using semantic- and rhyme-matching tasks. Participants performed an oral word reading task...

Quality of Communication Life (QoCL) In Persons with Expressive Aphasia With And Without Communication Intervention & #8211; A Comparative Study
Conclusions: The results prove that communication intervention is necessary for PwAs to improve QoCL and can be used to raise awareness of its importance. The findings can also guide treatment planning, counseling the PwA, and caregivers. It also indicates the importance of using patient-related outcome measures during the intervention process.

A Rare Pathologic Collecting and Hoarding Behavior Following Left Middle Cerebral Artery Territory Infarction
Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of punding following an ischemic stroke at the caudate nucleus. Our case strengthens the hypothetical pathophysiology of punding, which may involve not only direct dopaminergic stimulation but also the dysregulation of the dopamine system.

Amnestic aphasia in MELAS can be epileptogenic
Referring to the article by Sakata et al. we disagree with the diagnosis “thalamic aphasia” [1]. Since thalamic lesions can be associated with status epilepticus (SE) [2], it is crucial that SE has been ruled out2. Therefore, we should know if creatine-kinase (CK) was elevated to 5883 U/l due to myopathy, the stroke-like lesion (SLL), cardiomyopathy, or a SE. Becaus e periodic lateralised epileptiform discharges (PLEDs) can be the manifestation of a non-convulsive/minimal convulsive SE [3], we should know if a SE was recorded on electroencephalography (EEG) on hospital-day 8 and why midazolam was administered.
