Categorical perception of lexical tones in Chinese people with post-stroke aphasia
This study used the categorical perception (CP) paradigm, a fine-grained perceptual method, to investigate the perceptual performance of lexical tones in Chinese people with post-stroke aphasia (PWA). Twenty patients with post-stroke aphasia (10 Broca's and 10 Wernicke's) and ten neurologically intact age-matched control participants were recruited to complete both identification and discrimination tasks of the Mandarin Tone 1-2 continuum. In addition, all participants completed tests on their auditory comprehension ability and working memory. The results showed that both Broca's and Wernicke's patients exhibited reduced s...

The Severity-Calibrated Aphasia Naming Test
CONCLUSION: We provide a linear model to convert SCANT scores to aphasia severity scores, and we identify a change score cutoff of four SCANT items to obtain a high degree of confidence based on test-retest SCANT data and the modeled relation between SCANT and aphasia severity scores.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.21476871.PMID:36332139 | DOI:10.1044/2022_AJSLP-22-00071

Cerebral Palsy: Current Concepts and Practices in Musculoskeletal Care
Cerebral palsy is a neurologic disorder characterized by a spectrum of motor and cognitive deficits resulting from insults to the developing brain. The etiologies are numerous and likely multifactorial; an increasing portion of cases may be attributable to genetic causes, although the exact mechanisms responsible remain poorly understood. Major risk factors include intrauterine stroke and prematurity and neonatal infection, trauma, and hypoxia, which may occur in the prenatal, perinatal, or postnatal period. The Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) is a widely used tool to establish a child ’s level of func...

Reversing the Ruin: Rehabilitation, Recovery, and Restoration After Stroke
AbstractPurpose of ReviewStroke is a common cause of disability in aging adults. A given individual ’s needs after stroke vary as a function of the stroke extent and location. The purpose of this review was to discuss recent clinical investigations addressing rehabilitation of an array of overlapping functional domains.Recent FindingsResearch is ongoing in the domains of movement, cognition, attention, speech, language, swallowing, and mental health. To best assist patients ’ recovery, innovative research has sought to develop and evaluate behavioral approaches, identify and refine synergistic approaches that augment t...

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 12127: The Use of the ICF Classification Sheet to Assess Cognitive-Behavioral Disorders and Verbal Communication in Patients after Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke during Rehabilitation
Conclusions: The frequency and type of cognitive-behavioral and verbal communication disorders vary depending on the history of ICH or IS. The ICF classification may be useful in assessing and analyzing cognitive-behavioral and verbal communication disorders, which may lead to the implementation of appropriate psychological and speech therapy at an early stage of rehabilitation and increase the effectiveness of the therapy.
