Author | Case (n) | Intervention | Post-stroke onset | Therapeutic duration/intensity | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Meinzer et al.,2016 | 26 | Intensive naming + tDCS | > 12 months | Naming therapy (14 days/ 1.5 h/day) × 2 per day prior stimulation | Multi-session tDCS provoke long-lasting enhancement of therapeutic outcome |
Carlson et al. 2016 | 1 | rTMS + SLT | 30 months | 2 weeks/ rTMS + SLT | rTMS is safe in pediatric PSA |
Sebastian et al. 2017 | 1 | Cerebellar tDCS + BT | 5 years | 15 sessions / 60 days apart. | Anodal cerebellar tDCS + BT is more efficient than BT alone |
Marangolo et al. 2017 | 14 | tsDCS | ≥ 6 months | 3 weeks / 20 min/ 2 mA | tsDCS promotes verb recovery in chronic PSA |
Harvey et al. 2017 | 09 | rTMS | 55 months | 10 days/600 pulses | rTMS offers long-lasting enhancements in picture naming |
Woodhead et al. 2018 | 21 | iReadMore VS tDCS | > 1 year | 4 weeks/ 34 h iReadMore + 11 stimulation sessions | iReadMore confirmed in advancing the reading proficiency for trained words in central alexia |
Spielmann et al. 2018 | 13 | tDCS + word-finding | ≥ 6 months | 3 sessions, 3 days apart /1 month | There is probability of determining an optimal electrode position |
Hu et al. 2018 | 40 | LF-rTMS VS HF-rTMS | > 1 month | HF-rTMS (10 Hz) LF-rTMS (1 Hz) | Low-frequency rTMS is more efficient than the high frequency. |
Szaflarski et al. 2018 | 12 | iTBS + mCIAT | mCIAT 45 min/10 days 1 session iTBS/10 days Before mCIAT | iTBS + mCIAT achievable and safe | |
Vila-Nova et al. 2019 | 13 | tDCS + word-finding | 15–70 months | -6 months SLT × 1 for week - 3 weeks tDCS | tDCS effectivity in articulation but not word count |
Harvey et al. 2019 | 11 | CTBS | ≥ 6 months | 600 pulses | CTBS offer long-lasting enhancements in picture naming |
Heikkinen et al. 2019 | 17 | rTMS + ILAT | ≥ 12 months | 2 weeks | -ILAT exhibited effectiveness for the chronic PSA phase -rTMS did not yield notable results |
Georgiou et al. 2019 | 02 | cTBS | 20–25 months | 600 pulses | cTBS as monotherapy improve promote language recovery |
