Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for improving post-stroke aphasia - Enough evidence for clinical routine use?
Clin Neurophysiol. 2022 May 21:S1388-2457(22)00275-9. doi: 10.1016/j.clinph.2022.05.009. Online ahead of print.NO ABSTRACTPMID:35624042 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2022.05.009

Efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in treating stroke aphasia: Systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the rTMS technique can enhance rehabilitation of language skills in post-stroke aphasia when administered according to the established safety parameters.SIGNIFICANCE: Our results have implications for treatment of post-stroke aphasia. In subacute aphasia, low frequency rTMS over right BA45 improved naming, repetition, speech fluency and writing but not comprehension, whereas in chronic aphasia naming and speech production improved, but repetition and comprehension showed smaller gains.PMID:35606322 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2022.04.017

Risk Factors for Postischemic Stroke Epilepsy in Young Adults: A Nationwide Population-Based Study in Taiwan
ConclusionsStroke severity, aphasia, malignancy, and drug abuse were associated increased risk of PSE and statin use may protect against PSE in young adults. Reducing the severity of stroke, statin use and controlling unhealthy behaviors might be able to decrease the development of PSE. Since PSE is associated with poor outcomes, early identification or intervention of PSE based on the risk factors might reduce the harmful effects of PSE.

The FAST VAN for Field Identification of Large Vessel Occlusion in Acute Stroke
DISCUSSION: The FAST VAN tool for identification of LVO meets desired characteristics of an effective screening tool in ease of use, efficiency, and accuracy. Aphasia remains the most challenging cortical feature to identify accurately.PMID:35581931 | DOI:10.1017/cjn.2022.32

Significance of Vertigo, Imbalance, and Other Minor Symptoms in Hyperacute Treatment of Posterior Circulation Stroke
ConclusionsThis study failed to show differences in outcome in patients with PCS according to how AVS/AIS is addressed in the stroke thrombolysis code. In patients with minor PCS, AVS/AIS was associated with a benign clinical course. Prompt identification of prodromal AVS/AIS is essential.

Carotid Micromesh Stent for the Cervical Carotid Artery Dissecting Aneurysm in a Patient with Vascular Eagle Syndrome
A 38-year-old man was brought to the emergency room with sudden onset of aphasia and right hemiplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (Fig. 1A, B) showed an occlusion in the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) and left frontal and parietal lobes infarction. Cerebral angiography (Fig. 1C) showed a cervical carotid artery (CCA) dissecting aneurysm and stenosis. The superior trunk of the left MCA was occluded. The patient underwent emergent thrombectomy. The occluded artery was partially recanalized.
