Stroke survivors with acquired language deficits are commonly thought to reach a
'plateau'within a year of stroke onset, after which their residual language skills will remain …

Background: Predicting aphasia recovery after stroke has been difficult due to substantial
variability in outcomes. Few studies have characterised the nature and extent of recovery …

Acquired language disorders after stroke are strongly associated with left hemisphere
damage. When language difficulties are observed in the context of right hemisphere strokes …

Purpose: Several adult studies have documented the importance of the peri-stroke areas to
aphasia recovery. But, studies examining the differences in patterns of cortical participation …

Previous functional imaging studies of chronic stroke patients with aphasia suggest that
recovery of language occurs in a pre-existing, bilateral network with an upregulation of …

Abstract Language is not a single function, but instead results from interactions between
neural representations and computations that can be damaged independently of each other …

Verbal stimuli often induce right‐hemispheric activation in patients with aphasia after left‐
hemispheric stroke. This right‐hemispheric activation is commonly attributed to functional …

Background and Purpose—This study was undertaken to correlate functional recovery from
aphasia after acute stroke with the temporal evolution of the anatomic, physiological, and …

Most individuals who experience aphasia after a stroke recover to some extent, with the
majority of gains taking place in the first year. The nature and time course of this recovery …

The study of language network plasticity following left hemisphere stroke is foundational to
the understanding of aphasia recovery and neural plasticity in general. Damage in different …
