Researchers have sought to understand how language is processed in the brain, how brain
damage affects language abilities, and what can be expected during the recovery period …

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 …

Recovery from aphasia is thought to depend on neural plasticity, that is, the functional
reorganization of surviving brain regions such that they take on new or expanded roles in …

Background: Since design and publication of the Western Aphasia Battery (WAB),
increasing use to assess patients with aphasia in a clinical and research setting in stroke …

A major objective in post-stroke aphasia research is to gain a deeper understanding of
neuroplastic mechanisms that drive language recovery, with the ultimate goal of enhancing …

Given the profound impact of language impairment after stroke (aphasia), neuroplasticity
research is garnering considerable attention as means for eventually improving aphasia …

Although language deficits are the primary area of weakness, people with poststroke
aphasia often experience challenges with nonlinguistic cognitive skills, including attention …

Purpose Despite a tremendous amount of research in this topic, the precise neural
mechanisms underlying language recovery remain unclear. Much of the evidence suggests …

This paper examined the effects of treatment on both offline and online sentence processing
and associated neuroplasticity within sentence processing and dorsal attention networks in …

Objective To establish benchmarks of significant change for aphasia rehabilitation outcome
measures (ie, Western Aphasia Battery-Aphasia Quotient [WAB-AQ], Communicative …
