Non-invasive brain stimulation has been widely used as an adjunctive treatment for aphasia following stroke.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of non-invasive brain stimulation as an adjunctive treatment on naming function in aphasia following stroke.
This review included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 5 databases (Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, OVID and PubMed) that investigated the effects of electrical stimulation on stroke patients. The search included literature published up to November 2023.
We identified 18 studies, and the standardized mean differences (SMDs) showed that the effect sizes of TMS and tDCS were small to medium. Moreover, the treatment effects persisted over time, indicating long-term efficacy.
This study suggested that NIBS combined with speech and language therapy can effectively promote the recovery of naming function in patients with post-stroke aphasia (PSA) and that the effects are long lasting.
非侵入性脑刺激已被广泛用作中风后失语症的辅助治疗方法。
本研究旨在探讨非侵入性脑刺激作为辅助治疗对中风后失语症命名功能的影响。
本综述纳入了涉及 5 个数据库(Web of Science、Embase、Cochrane Library、OVID 和 PubMed)的随机对照试验(RCT),研究了电刺激对中风患者的影响。检索范围包括截至 2023 年 11 月发表的文献。
我们共确定了 18 项研究,标准化均数差(SMD)表明 TMS 和 tDCS 的效应量为小至中等。此外,治疗效果随时间持续存在,表明具有长期疗效。
本研究表明,NIBS 联合语言治疗可有效促进中风后失语症(PSA)患者命名功能的恢复,且疗效持久。
