A right convergence area of the prefrontal lobe is involved in the improvement of semantic fluency in patients with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSION: The improvement of semantic fluency in subacute PSA patients may require the participation of the right convergence area of the prefrontal lobe.PMID:37651207 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2253632

Turning the Spotlight to Cholinergic Pharmacotherapy of the Human Language System
AbstractEven though language is essential in human communication, research on pharmacological therapies for language deficits in highly prevalent neurodegenerative and vascular brain diseases has received little attention. Emerging scientific evidence suggests that disruption of the cholinergic system may play an essential role in language deficits associated with Alzheimer ’s disease and vascular cognitive impairment, including post-stroke aphasia. Therefore, current models of cognitive processing are beginning to appraise the implications of the brain modulator acetylcholine in human language functions. Future work sho...

Language reorganization patterns in global aphasia –evidence from fNIRS
ConclusionThe left SMG plays a critical role in the language function of patients with global aphasia, especially in their abilities to name and repeat. fNIRS is a promising approach to revealing the changes in brain activities in patients with aphasia, and we believe it will contribute to a deeper understanding of the neurological mechanisms and the establishment of a novel treatment approach for global aphasia.

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.

A phase II randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an education program on speech-language pathologist' self-efficacy, and self-rated competency for counselling to support psychological wellbeing in people with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: The demonstrated feasibility and preliminary efficacy of this online counseling program warrant a future definitive trial.PMID:36440678 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2145736

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.

Functional Network Changes After High-Frequency rTMS Over the Most Activated Speech-Related Area Combined With Speech Therapy in Chronic Stroke With Non-fluent Aphasia
ConclusionImprovement of language function and changes of corticocortical interaction between language-related cortical areas were observed after HF-rTMS on the most activated area identified by fNIRS with combined speech therapy in the patients with poststroke aphasia.

The nature of inpatient rehabilitation for people with aphasia from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds: a scoping review
CONCLUSIONS: CALD stroke survivors with aphasia inconsistently access SLP services in hospital. Assessment is unlikely to be conducted in patient primary languages and therapy is usually provided in the language of SLPs. Further research is required to determine whether this impacts functional outcomes and health services.PMID:34854368 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.2008599
