Therapy-induced brain reorganization patterns in aphasia.
Both hemispheres are engaged in recovery from word production deficits in aphasia. Lexical therapy has been shown to induce brain reorganization even in patients with chronic aphasia. However, the interplay of factors influencing reorganization patterns still remains unresolved. We were especially interested in the relation between lesion site, therapy-induced recovery, and beneficial reorganiz...
متن کاملTraining-induced brain plasticity in aphasia.
It has long been a matter of debate whether recovery from aphasia after left perisylvian lesions is mediated by the preserved left hemispheric language zones or by the homologous right hemisphere regions. Using PET, we investigated the short-term changes in the cortical network involved in language comprehension during recovery from aphasia. In 12 consecutive measurements of regional cerebral b...
متن کاملTherapy-induced neuroplasticity in chronic aphasia.
Research on the neural substrate of aphasia recovery has consistently increased since the advent of functional neuroimaging. The evidence from therapy-induced aphasia recovery studies shows that better recovery results from the reactivation of left hemisphere function; still, the specific left hemisphere key areas that sign successful outcome with a specific therapy approach remain to be identi...
متن کاملPatterns in Bilingual Aphasia
The purpose of the research was to examine the language outcomes of a unilingual treatment for a bilingual individual with aphasia. The patient, a 36year old male, was born in Poland, but was exposed mostly to English for the 13 years prior to the incident, due to the fact that his family moved to the United States, where English became his everyday language. He started to learn English at the ...
متن کاملLong-term stability of improved language functions in chronic aphasia after constraint-induced aphasia therapy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In response to the established notion that improvement of language functions in chronic aphasia only can be achieved through long-term treatment, we examined the efficacy of a short-term, intensive language training, constraint-induced aphasia therapy (CIAT). This program is founded on the learning principles of prevention of compensatory communication (constraint), masse...
