Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects a person's ability to process language and can cause difficulty speaking, reading, and writing. It is usually caused by damage to the left side of the brain, often from a stroke or head injury. Effects of aphasia may include mixing up letters and words, forgetting words, headaches, and pronouncing or ordering words incorrectly in sentences. While intelligence remains, speaking becomes very challenging for those with aphasia. Technology can help in rehabilitation by allowing patients to practice words and sentences at home.

Aphasia
Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects a person's ability to speak, understand, read or write language. It can range from difficulty finding words to being completely unable to communicate. It is often caused by damage to the left side of the brain, most commonly from a stroke or head injury. While it impacts language skills, intelligence remains intact. People with aphasia may struggle with pronouncing words correctly, reading, writing and putting sentences together. Technology and home exercises using computers and websites can help aphasics improve skills lost due to their condition.
Nervous System
The document discusses medical suffixes and their meanings related to paralysis and speech. It defines suffixes like -plegia which refers to paralysis, -phasia which refers to speech, and provides examples. It explains monoplegia is paralysis of a single limb, often in the arm. Quadriplegia or tetraplegia is paralysis of all four limbs and torso with loss of both sensation and control. Dysphasia and aphasia refer to speech disorders, with dysphasia being mild impairment and aphasia being more severe. Asphasia results from damage to brain areas responsible for language, often on the left side, and can be caused by a stroke, head injury, tumor or dementia.
Presentation 12
Broca's aphasia causes an expressive speech difficulty where patients understand language but cannot properly express themselves through speech, which comes out as gibberish. Their coordination of mouth movements needed for clear speech has been disrupted. Hemiparesis is weakness on one side of the body commonly caused by stroke or cerebral palsy and can also be caused by multiple sclerosis or brain tumors. Hemiplegia is paralysis of one side of the body caused by damage to the central nervous system where movement commands are not transmitted to the muscles, and in addition to motor problems, other functions like memory or sensation can be altered.

Brain Damage & Behavior
Localized brain damage refers to damage that affects a specific area of the brain. Damage to different areas can result in distinct behavioral and cognitive changes. For example, damage to the frontal lobe may cause problems with problem-solving, planning, and controlling emotions and behavior. Damage to Broca's area in the left frontal lobe can impair speech production, while damage to Wernicke's area can cause difficulties comprehending and producing language. Damage to different parts of the brain leads to impairments in functions controlled by those areas, such as vision, movement, sensation, and memory.
Left and Right Hemispheres
Powerpoint introducing the right and left hemispheres of the brain, and history of split brain patients
Communication barriers
Several age-related conditions can cause poor communication, including declining hearing and sight, as well as changes in voice and language impairment from cognitive loss or diseases. A stroke can cause permanent tissue damage affecting speech, language, and dexterity, depending on where it occurs in the brain. Agnosia impairs the ability to comprehend stimuli while apraxia affects voluntary muscle movement, and dysarthria impacts speech muscles. Aphasia can be caused by an aneurysm and affects all aspects of language, resulting in the inability to recall or retain new information, read, write, speak, or comprehend, manifesting as nonsensical speech or an expressive versus receptive form.
Brain and language
This document summarizes research on the relationship between language and the brain. It discusses that language is localized primarily to the left hemisphere of the brain, with Broca's area controlling speech production and Wernicke's area involved in comprehension. Different types of aphasia can occur depending on where lesions are located. Imaging technologies like MRI and PET scans have helped researchers further understand language representation and lateralization in the brain.
Brain and Language
The document discusses the relationship between the human brain and language. It describes that the brain has over 100 billion neurons, with language functions localized primarily in the left hemisphere. Specifically, Broca's area in the frontal lobe controls speech production, while Wernicke's area in the temporal lobe is involved in language comprehension. Different types of aphasia that result from brain damage in these areas are described, including Broca's aphasia which affects grammar and Wernicke's aphasia where speech is fluent but not meaningful. The localization of language in the brain was an area of study dating back to ancient times but was more precisely mapped out by scientists in the 19th century such as Broca and Wern

The document summarizes research on language lateralization and processing in the left and right hemispheres of the brain. It discusses how damage to different areas like Broca's area and Wernicke's area can cause different language deficits. It also covers split-brain patients and research showing the hemispheres can function independently. Functional brain imaging research suggests language activation is widespread and varied rather than localized to specific areas.
Documenting the Communication Gap
Aphasia is a language disorder caused by damage to the brain, typically from a stroke or head injury. There are several types of aphasia that are distinguished by their symptoms and the areas of the brain that are damaged. Treatment for aphasia depends on the individual and may include speech and language therapy. While recovery is possible, aphasia can be difficult for those who have it and their loved ones. Current research aims to better understand aphasia and identify new treatment approaches.
Brain and language
The document discusses the relationship between the brain and language. It notes that the brain is composed of two hemispheres, the left controlling the right side of the body and vice versa. Research has shown that language is lateralized to the left hemisphere. Areas like Broca's area and Wernicke's area in the left hemisphere are linked to language abilities. Damage to these areas can cause aphasias, impairing speech, comprehension and word retrieval. The study of brain damage and its effects on language has furthered understanding of this relationship.

The brain is the most complex organ but is also the least understood. It is divided into two hemispheres that control different functions. The majority of people are right-handed, with their left hemisphere dominating language and logical skills. Specific areas of the brain like Broca's area in the left frontal lobe are linked to controlling speech production and understanding language. Damage to this area can result in Broca's aphasia, where a person has difficulty producing language.
Presentation12 h
Paraplegia is a condition where the lower body is paralyzed due to spinal cord injury or conditions like spina bifida. Aphasia is a speech disorder where a person has difficulty speaking, reading, or writing due to lesions in the brain lobes that control language. Both conditions affect the central nervous system and require specialized rehabilitation to help patients regain independence and language skills.
Final project
An officer suffered a traumatic brain injury after falling 4 meters during a search of an abandoned construction site. He experienced expressive aphasia and short-term amnesia, indicating damage to Broca's area and the hippocampus. Over several months his language abilities gradually improved through rehabilitation, but he was unable to regain his previous level of speech and his career changed. The incident was viewed as an accident despite lack of safety precautions by the negligent police commander.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
