Frontal Lobe Dysfunction in Unilateral Lenticulostriate Infarcts

The anatomy of aphasia revisited

“…At the level of aphasic disorder, all models correctly classified a large proportion of patients. 40,41 This study demonstrates close associations between aphasic disorders and specific lesions, and this supports the existence of the anatomy of aphasia. 18 We found that the main determinant of aphasic disorder is the lesion location.…”

White Matter Changes on CT and MRI: An Overview of Visual Rating Scales

“…These types of studies require a simple scoring system that can be used in all patients even when scans are of suboptimal quality and in cases with focal lesions such as stroke. Another type of study where simple ratings may be appropriate is a neuropsychological study in which the effect of a single lesion is studied and patients with LA above certain levels need to be excluded [68]. On CT, the rating scale of Blennow et al [10] may the best for these studies, or the scale of van Swieten et al [29] as illustrated by the study of Streifler et al [30].…”

The Behavioral and Cognitive Executive Disorders of Stroke: The GREFEX Study

“…In terms of the behavioral profile, the high prevalence of hypoactivity with disinterest and anticipation loss agrees with previous reports of apathy in 20% to 40% of stroke patients [ 11 – 14 , 36 ]. The prevalence of the opposite disorder (hyperactive behavior) has not been reported in stroke patients other than those with postaneurysmal frontal lesions [ 37 , 38 ] and, to a lesser extent, striatal stroke [ 39 , 40 ]. From a clinical perspective, a shortened inventory involving only two domains (and which takes less than four minutes to administer) provides similar diagnostic accuracy in stroke patients.…”
