Aphasia is a disorder of language caused by damage to the language centers of the brain. There are several types of aphasia depending on the location and extent of the brain damage. Broca's aphasia involves damage to Broca's area in the frontal lobe, resulting in non-fluent speech. Wernicke's aphasia involves damage to Wernicke's area in the temporal lobe, resulting in fluent but meaningless speech. Global aphasia occurs when both areas are damaged, severely impairing speech production and comprehension.
Speech disorders
1. Central Mechanisms:
Depending on the integration of the higher brain centers for symbolization (speech centers), mainly in the dominant hemisphere.
Lesion leads to Dysphasia or Aphasia.
2. Peripheral Mechanisms:
A. Articulation:
Lesion leads to Dysarthria or Anarthria.
B. Phonation:
Lesion leads to Dysphonia or Aphonia.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Report Back from SGO 2024: What’s the Latest in Cervical Cancer?bkling
Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. LANGUAGE AND SPEECH
• Language – machanism for expressing thoughts, ideas
• By speech
• By writing
• By gestures
• Speech is dependent on
– Interpretation of the auditory and visual images
– Association of these images with motor centers
– Expression of the motor elements
• Aphasia – disorder of language
• Dysarthria – disorder of articulation of speech
3. • Three cortical levels of
comprehension
Composition of language
Level of
arrival
Level of
knowing
Level of
recognition
• Three cortical levels of
motor speech function
Emotional
level
Automatic
level
Propositional
level

5. Broca’s area
• Posterior inferior frontal
gyrus
• just anterior to primary
motor area
• left precentral gyrus of
insula, motor planning
area
7. Arcuate fasciculus
• deep white matter tract
• connects WA to BA
around posterior end of
the Sylvian fissure, through
subcortical white matter of
the insula to the BA
8. Angular gyrus
• part of inferior parietal
lobule
• between WA and Visual
cortex
•Important for reading adn

functions
11. Handedness
• 90-95% are right handed – left hemisphere dominant
in 99% of them
• Left handers – 60-70% - left hemisphere dominant
• Remaining left handers – half have mixed dominance,
half have right dominant
• Anamolous dextrals / shifted sinistrals – right dominant
Examination for aphasia
12. • Handedness and
dominant status is
paramount
• Failure of dominance
development –
dyslexia, stuttering,
mirror writing, learning
difficulty
• Aphasia tend to be less
severe in left handers
and recover better
• Just a family history of
left handedness may
recover.
13. • Which language recovers best is variable
• Pitre’s law – best recovery for the language used the
most
• Ribot’s rule – recovery will be best for the native
language.
• Most patients show parallel recovery for both
languages.
Multilinguals ...
15. • Emotional speech ... ‘ouch’, swear or curse ...
• Automatic speech ... Count, days of the week,
alphabets, own name, nursery rhymes
• Monophasia ... Retained segment .. “Tan”, “do-do”, “oh
God” ...
• Can be real word or neologism.
Spontaneous speech
17. • Note the fluency, pronounciation, sentence formation,
rhythm, prosody, ommission or transposition,
repetition, perseveration, paraphasia, jargon and
neologisms.
• Fluency – 100 to 115 words per minute
• <10 to 15 – nonfluent aphasia
• Best approach – ask open ended questions esp. For
nonfluent aphasias
18. • Simple verbal commands – “show your teech”, close
your eyes”, “point to the ceiling”
• Failure may not necessarily prove, may be apraxia
• If not, establish if he can say yes or no
• If not, ask ridiculously simple questions
• Is a mother older than a daughter?
• To old lady “ r u pregnant?”, she giggles!
• Ask enough questions for yes/no to exclude
being lucky
comprehension
19. • Marie’s paper test – comprehension and retention
• Impaired comprehension have difficulty in passive
constructions
• Lion was killed by the tiger, which animal died?
• They may comprehend to gestures, mime –
place finger to the nose or show ur tongue
• However, this is more lower level function than
comprehension
20. Left right orientation
• Especially posterior lesions
• Gerstmann’s syndrome
• show me your right thumb
• Touch your right ear with your left thumb
21. • Confrontation naming
• Simple objects – keys, watch, pen, coin
• Responsive naming
• Audition rather than vision
• Where do teachers work?
• How does sugar taste?
• Methods
• Word list generation – min 12 items in category/min
• Think of all words with particular letter
• FAS test – 12 or more words/letter/min, 36 words total/3
min
naming
22. • Proportional to comprehension/fluency
• Screening test for aphasia
• Simple tasks
• Counting, avoiding numbers, repeat single words
• Complex tasks
• Polysyllabic words, phrases, tongue twisters
• Popular phrase
– “no if, ands, or buts”
• Better
– “they heard him on the radio last night”
• Preserved in anomic, transcortical and some
subcortical aphasias.
Repetition
23. • Preserved in dysarthria/verbal apraxia
• All aphasias, reading/writing worse than
understanding/speaking
• Spontaneous writing
• Few words, sentence, paragraph
• Dictative writing
• Analogous to repeat verbal command
• Copying written material tests
• Information transfer from visual to language areas
• Connections betn receptive language areas and Exner’s
center
Writing
24. • Dysfunction of the language centers or interuption of
the connection with the visual system – alexia
• Alexia without any accompanying inability to
comprehend speech – pure word blindness
• Alexia without agraphia
• Alexia with agraphia
• Reading aloud
• Like copying, repetition
Reading
25. • Problematic because
– Disorders vary in severity
– Strictly anatomic classification does not apply
– Similar lesions may produce different syndromes
– Different lesions may produce similar results
• Different ways
– Expressive/receptive
– Fluent/non-fluent
– Motor/sensory
– Anterior/posterior
– Central/paracentral
classification
26. • Wernicke – Geschwind model
• Eight types
Boston classification
29. • Non-fluent, Expressive, Motor, Anterior, Pre-rolandic,
Executive
• Lesion –
• Anterior peri-sylvian speech area in the PIF region.
• Labored, non-fluent speech with a decreased
amount of linguistic output.
• tendency to leave out nonessential words such as
adjectives, prepositions that serve primarily to provide
sentence structure (telegraphic speech)
• ability to comprehend speech is relatively unimpaired.
Broca’s Aphasia
30. • preservation of emotional and automatic speech, and the
patient may be able to sing.
• contralateral hemiparesis or faciobrachial paresis but no
visual field deficit.
31. • Fluent, Receptive, Sensory, Posterior, Postrolandic
• Lesion –
• in the PST region that involves the auditory association cortex and
the angular and supra-marginal gyri
• unable to understand speech (word deafness) or read
(word blindness)
• fluent, with a normal or even increased word output
(logorrhea, hyperlalia), but there is loss of the ability to
comprehend the significance of spoken words or recall
their meaning.
• cannot understand his own speech
Wernicke’s Aphasia
32. • “The frequent paraphasias and neologisms, combined with
agrammatism, along with the high word output, may lead to
completely unintelligible gibberish, termed jargon aphasia, or word
salad.”
- Hughlings Jackson
• often have a visual field deficit but no hemiparesis.
• Frequently thought to be psychotic.”
33.
34. • Total, Expressive-Receptive, Complete
• lesion
• destroyed the entire perisylvian language center, or separate lesions
have destroyed both the PIF and PST regions
• Grossly nonfluent speech is combined with a severe
comprehension deficit and inability to name or repeat.
• Typically, there is both a hemiplegia and a field cut
• usually due to internal carotid or proximal MCA
occlusion”
Global Aphasia
35. • Associative, Commissural, Central, Deep
• lesion
• interrupts the conduction of impulses between Wernicke’s and
Broca’s areas
• poor repetition with relative preservation of other
language functions.
• Patients have difficulty reading aloud and writing to
dictation.
• The etiology is usually an embolic occlusion of a
terminal branch of the MCA.
Conduction Aphasia
36. • Amnesic, Amnestic, Nominal
• deficit in naming ability with preservation of other
language functions.
• fluent, have good comprehension, and are able to
repeat.
• lesion cannot be readily localized to any particular
cortical area. (non localising syndrome)
• Lesion –
• language disorder suggests a lower temporal lobe lesion.
Anomic Aphasia
37. • The perisylvian language area is preserved but
disconnected from the rest of the brain
• etiology is usually BZI. (border-zone infarcts)
• aphasic but paradoxical preservation of repetition.
• isolation of the speech area, or mixed TCA
– entire perisylvian language complex is separated from the
rest of the brain, the patients are not fluent in spontaneous
speech and are unable to comprehend.”
Transcortical Aphasia
38. • Lesions—usually vascular—involving the thalamus,
caudate, putamen, periventricular white matter, or
internal capsule of the language dominant
hemisphere.
• Two types have been described:
•Anterior syndrome (caudate or striatocapsular aphasia) - slow
dysarthric speech with preserved phrase length, that is, not telegraphic,
preserved comprehension, and poor naming
•Posterior syndrome (thalamic aphasia) - there is fluent speech without
dysarthria, poor comprehension, and poor naming
Subcortical Aphasia (extrasylvian)
39. • affect the nonlinguistic elements of language
• There is loss or impairment of the rhythm and
emotional elements of language.
• unable to say the same neutral phrase (e.g., “I am
going to the store”) in an angry or happy way.
Non-dominant Hemisphere
Language Disturbances
40. • Loss of the ability to read in the absence of actual loss of
vision is alexia (word blindness, visual receptive aphasia,
visual sensory aphasia).
• Lesion –
• angular or supramarginal gyrus, or its connections to the visual cortex
• Loss of the ability to write not due to weakness,
incoordination, or other neurologic dysfunction of the arm
or hand is called agraphia.
– There are three types of agraphia: aphasic, constructional (due to
visuospatial compromise), and apractic. ”
• Agraphia is seen in all types of aphasia except pure word
blindness and pure word mutism.
Alexia and Agraphia
41. • Loss of musical ability, either production or
comprehension, may occur in patients with aphasia or
agnosia, or acquired amusia may develop
independently.
• One classification of amusia includes vocal amusia,
instrumental amnesia, musical agraphia, musical
amnesia, disorders of rhythm, and receptive amusia.
Amusia
