Transcranial alternating current stimulation enhances speech comprehension in chronic post-stroke aphasia patients: A single-blind sham-controlled study
Aphasia is one of the most devastating complications following stroke [1]. Speech and language therapy (SLT) [2] is recommended for post-stroke aphasia (PSA), but the benefits remain limited. Several recent studies have examined the potential efficacy of combining SLT with various forms of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS), including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). While tDCS is accepted by clinicians and patients due to low cost and documented safety, it has not proven effective for improving speech comprehension [3].

Development of bedside aphasia battery in tamil (BAB-T)
Divya Sivagnanapandian, Preethi Shanmuga, Jasmine Lydia SelvarajAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2022 25(6):1138-1146
Bedside Aphasia Battery in Tamil (BAB-T) was developed for assessing the linguistic abilities of Tamil-speaking individuals following an acquired brain injury. Method: The conception of the test took place in two phases: Phase 1 was the development of the Bedside Aphasia Battery in Tamil (BAB-T) and phase 2 administration of the test battery in neurotypical adults and patients with aphasia. A Delphi panel was constructed based on selected experts from the field of neuro-communication disorders and lin...

Modulations of static and dynamic functional connectivity among brain networks by electroacupuncture in post-stroke aphasia
This study aimed to investigate the PSA-related effects of EA stimulation at HT5 and GB39 on neural processing. Thirty-five participants were recruited, including 19 patients with PSA and 16 healthy controls (HCs). The BOLD signal was analyzed by static independent component analysis, generalized psychophysiological interactions, and dynamic independent component analysis, considering variables such as age, sex, and years of education.ResultsThe results revealed that PSA showed activated clusters in the left putamen, left postcentral gyrus (PostCG), and left angular gyrus in the salience network (SN) compared to the HC gro...

Longitudinal changes in functional connectivity in speech motor networks in apraxia of speech after stroke
ConclusionEarly interhemispheric IFG connectivity may be a strong predictor of AOS recovery. The results support the importance of interhemispheric vPMC connection in speech motor planning and severity of AOS and suggest that also bilateral aINS connectivity may have an impact on AOS severity. These findings need to be validated in larger cohorts.

Clinical and imaging predictors of dysphagia and swallowing ability recovery in acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionsInitial risk of aspiration was identified as risk factor for short-term and long-term dysphagia. Aphasia and larger WMH volume were revealed to be significant predictors for swallowing function recovery at 1 month. Right corona radiata was identified as an essential brain area for dysphagia.

Risk profile, clinical presentation, and determinants of stroke subtypes among patients with stroke admitted to public referral hospitals, Northwest Ethiopia in 2021: A cross-sectional study
ConclusionAge, the level of sedentary physical activity, absence of a family history of chronic illness, hypertension, and past stroke were independent determinants of stroke subtype.

Association between aphasia and risk of dementia after stroke
Stroke is an established risk factor for dementia and is associated with an acute and accelerated decline in cognition. With the aging population and improvements in stroke survival, the number of patients with post-stroke dementia is expected to increase,1 which entails substantial healthcare and economic burdens for patients and caregivers.

A Pilot Study of the Fluctuating Mental Status Evaluation: A Novel Delirium Screening Tool for Neurocritical Care Patients
ConclusionsIn this pilot study, the FMSE achieved a high sensitivity and specificity in detecting delirium. Follow-up validation studies in a larger more diverse cohort of neurocritical care patients will use score cutoffs of ≥ 1 as “possible” delirium and ≥ 2 as “probable” delirium.
