Background: Children who underwent posterior fossa tumor removal may have spoken or written language im- pairments. The present systematic review synthesized the literature regarding the language outcomes in this population. Benefits of this work were the identification of shortcomings in the literature and a starting point toward formulating guide...
Objective: Patients with left perisylvian gliomas might undergo language mapping with nTMS in preparation for awake brain surgery. Action naming is an important addition to the presurgical language mapping protocol. However, it has not yet been determined whether specific action stimuli can influence mapping outcomes in terms of number and/or local...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has provided relevant evidence regarding the neural correlates of language. The aim of the present study is to summarize and assess previous findings regarding linguistic levels (i.e., semantic and morpho-syntactic) and brain structures utilized during verb and sentence processing. To do that, we systematical...
People with tumours in specific brain sites might face difficulties in tasks with different linguistic material. Previous lesion‐symptom mapping studies (VLSM) demonstrated that people with tumours in posterior temporal regions have more severe linguistic impairments. However, to the best of our knowledge, preoperative performance and lesion locati...
Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (nTMS) is used to understand the cortical organization of language in preparation for the surgical removal of a brain tumor. Action naming with finite verbs can be employed for that purpose, providing additional information to object naming. However, little research has focused on the properties of the ve...
In the present study, we combined dMRI and nTMS during an action naming task with
finite verbs (Ohlerth et al., 2020) to investigate the neural underpinnings of transitive
and unergative verbs. After performing fiber tracking of the left and right AF (Fekonja
et al., 2019), we identified and stimulated frontal, parietal, and temporal cortical
termi...
Studies regarding intelligibility of dysarthric speech have primarily focused on how dysarthric speakers interact with naive, native listeners. However, due to increased globalization, there is a need to examine whether there is a difference in how accurately native and non-native listeners rate and transcribe dysarthric speech. The present two-par...
Abstract
Language in Autism Spectrum Disorders has drawn considerable attention in the field
of linguistics, yet there is still a scarcity of studies on this phenomenon in the Greek
language, especially on the active present tense Subject-Verb agreement. Following
previous studies that have explored this subject matter in different languages and f...
