Since this disorder is usually caused by damage to parts of the brain, it will typically first be recognized in an MRI or CT scan that can confirm the presence of a brain injury. The extent and type of aphasia can generally only be determined by observing the affected part of the brain ...
There are many causes of aphasia, including partial brain dam- age that leaves the individual with the physical ability to speak. If the individual is able to speak but does not, the therapist must determine the cause of such conduct. Often, speech therapists determine that problems are ...
Causes and symptoms The cause of common variable immunodeficiency is not known, although some forms seem to be hereditary. The main symptom is recurring infections that tend to be chronic rather than acute. Patients may also developdiarrheaand, as a consequence of the diarrhea, do not absorb foo...
(less than 0.01%): Cerebral edema, acute aseptic meningitis with meningism (paralysis, vomiting), irritation, dysarthria, aphasia, lethargy, transient subtle cognitive dysfunction, dysarthria, unusual cranial sensations, pain, muscular asthenia, paresthesia/ hypoesthesia, changes in sense of taste (...
Professor John M. Starr and Professor Leena Peltonen have passed away. We have included them in memory of their work on this project. This research was conducted using the UK Biobank Resource (application number 12703). Access to the UK Biobank study data was funded by the University of Queen...
For FTD, we primarily used the results of the cross-subtype meta-analysis, which includes behavioral variant FTD, semantic dementia FTD, progressive non-fluent aphasia FTD and mndFTD. For CBD, allele coding was unavailable, and effect alleles were inferred by matching allele frequencies to those ...
Then, a year after my stroke, I was told about the Aphasia Befriending Scheme (失语症帮扶计划). Volunteers spend an hour each week with stroke victims who often live alone or can’t go out. 3 However, volunteers can. I befriend one of the stroke patients, whose stroke has left him ...

Objective: Studies have demonstrated that damage to Broca's area causes problems in phonological processing, but leaves semantic processing mostly preserved. The current investigation explored whether problems in phonological processing caused by injury to Broca's area extends to numbers. Method: Patient ...
