The role of left and right hemisphere brain regions in language recovery after stroke-induced
aphasia remains controversial. Here, we summarize how neuroimaging studies increase the …

Background Aphasia is an important stroke sequel that impacts negatively on the HQoL of
stroke patients. Although a number of stroke patients with aphasia will have good functional …

Previous research showed that modality-preferential sensorimotor areas are relevant for
processing concrete words used to speak about actions. However, whether modality …

Background: Brain research has documented that the cortical mechanisms for language and
action are tightly interwoven and, concurrently, new approaches to language therapy in …

Purpose This systematic review summarizes evidence for intensity of treatment and
constraint-induced language therapy (CILT) on measures of language impairment and …

Background and Purpose—Previous studies have suggested that patients' potential for
poststroke language recovery is related to lesion size; however, lesion location may also be …

A recent study by our group revealed a strong relationship between functional brain
changes in the left hemisphere and anomia treatment outcome in chronic stroke patients (N …

Objective We conducted a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, parallel‐group
study of both memantine and constraint‐induced aphasia therapy (CIAT) on chronic …

The treatment of aphasias—acquired language disorders—caused by stroke and other
neurological conditions has benefitted from insights from neuroscience and …

Purpose In this article, the authors encapsulate discussions of the Language Work Group
that took place as part of the Workshop in Plasticity/NeuroRehabilitation Research at the …
