Neural network connectivity differences in children who stutter
Soo Eun Chang,David C. Zhu +1 more
TL;DR: Results showed that children who stutter have attenuated connectivity in neural networks that support timing of self-paced movement control, and suggest that auditory-motor and basal ganglia-thalamocortical networks develop differently in stuttering children, which may affect speech planning and execution processes needed to achieve fluent speech motor control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Introducing the model of cognitive-communication competence: A model to guide evidence-based communication interventions after brain injury
TL;DR: The development of the model of cognitive-communication competence is described, a new model that summarizes a complex array of influences on communication to provide a holistic view of communication competence after ABI that could bridge evidence to practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral and multimodal neuroimaging evidence for a deficit in brain timing networks in stuttering: a hypothesis and theory.
TL;DR: It is proposed that a deficit in brain timing networks is one of the core neurophysiological deficits in stuttering and a role for this structure in an expanded core timing-network is suggested.

Role of the left frontal aslant tract in stuttering: a brain stimulation and tractographic study
Rahsan Kemerdere,Nicolas Menjot de Champfleur,Nicolas Menjot de Champfleur,Jeremy Deverdun,Jérôme Cochereau,Sylvie Moritz-Gasser,Guillaume Herbet,Hugues Duffau +7 more
TL;DR: Original data is provided supporting a pivotal role of the left frontal aslant tract in stuttering, which is proposed to be the result of a disconnection within a large-scale cortico-subcortical circuit subserving speech motor control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of the Cortico-Basal Ganglia-Thalamocortical Loop in Developmental Stuttering.
TL;DR: This review uses the Directions Into Velocities of Articulators (DIVA) neurocomputational modeling framework to mechanistically interpret relevant findings from the behavioral and neurological literatures on stuttering, and proposes that the primary impairment underlying stuttering behavior is malfunction in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop that is responsible for initiating speech motor programs.

Screening tests for geriatric depression
TL;DR: It is argued that the diagnosis of depression in aged patients is the responsibility of both psychologists, and non-psychologists, for it is the latter that is most likely to make initial contact with an elder in need of help.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stuttered and fluent speech production: an ALE meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies
TL;DR: The phenomenon of efference copy is proposed as a unifying account of the pattern activation revealed within this ALE meta‐analysis of imaging studies of chronic developmental stuttering in adults, providing the basis for a stuttering system model that is testable and should help to advance the understanding and treatment of this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural and functional abnormalities of the motor system in developmental stuttering
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined brain structure and function in the motor and language areas in a group of young people who stutter and found overactivity in the midbrain, which was at the level of the substantia nigra and extended to the pedunculopontine nucleus, red nucleus and subthalamic nucleus.

Vascular cognitive impairment: current concepts and clinical developments.
Paige Moorhouse,Kenneth Rockwood +1 more
TL;DR: Although executive dysfunction is a recognised feature of VCI, some data suggest a less exclusive role than was previously proposed and future studies into specific therapies for VCI will need to consider the clinical features and outcomes carefully.
