Guidelines for management of ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack 2008. (2008, background): “Limited evidence supports the possible use of modified constraint-induced therapy for patients with aphasia [533, 534].”
Evidence-based guidelines on the therapeutic use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). (2017, background): “, more than 5 h of speech therapy per week) (Bhogal et al., 2003).”
Epidemiology of Aphasia Attributable to First Ischemic Stroke: Incidence, Severity, Fluency, Etiology, and Thrombolysis (2006, background): “Large artery atherosclerosis 7 (5) 15 (26) 0.”
Harnessing neuroplasticity for clinical applications (2011, positive): “For example, recovery of language in a patient with post-stroke aphasia is influenced by optimal language therapy (Bhogal et al., 2003); this language recovery is better detected with a scale that is sensitive to the language domain as compared with a global scale of overall status.”
tDCS-enhanced motor and cognitive function in neurological diseases (2014, positive): “Thus, a possibly fruitful area for research emerges with regard to naming abilities in patients with post-stroke aphasia, in whom impaired word-retrieval (anomia) is the most frequent symptom, with little or now spontaneous improvement after the first 6 months (Bhogal et al., 2003).”
