Cortical relay time (CRT) is a neurophysiologic method that measures transmission between sensory and motor cortices. In this study, we calculated CRT to evaluate intrahemispheric transmission in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). We recorded the following parameters: 1) long latency reflexes (LLRs), 2) motor-evoked potentials (MEPs), and 3) somatosensoryevoked potentials (SEPs) according to previously published reports, and cortical relay time was calculated using the following formula: Latency of LLR II - (onset latency of MEP response + latency of N20 response of SEP). CRT was shorter in patients with apraxia compared with patients without apraxia. The findings may raise the possibility of intrahemispheric aberrant conduction or abnormal synaptic reorganization in the presence of apraxia in PD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

APRAXIA , *COGNITION disorders , *GERIATRIC Depression Scale , *BARTHEL Index , *MILD cognitive impairment - Abstract
Introduction Apraxia refers to inability to perform skilled or learned acts, which cannot be explained by primary motor, sensory or comprehension impairments. The currently used foreign apraxia batteries are quite complex, lengthy and not compatible for uneducated people. This study aimed to develop a new, simple and short apraxia test for uneducated people. Method Subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD) (n:38 ), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (n:39) and healthy control group (n:263) participated to study. All participants were administered neuropsychological battery which included Yesavage geriatric depression scale, Barthel index, mini-mental status examination (MMSE), and DEKODa apraxia test (DEKODa). SPSS 20.0 was used to make comparisons of groups. Results The Yesavage geriatric depression scale, Barthel Index, MMSE and DEKODa were different from each other in almost all groups (p<0.001). In the comparison of MMSE and DEKODa scores used the Pearson correlation analysis, a significant correlation was found between each of the groups (p< 0.05). The cut-off value of DEKODa score was determined as 10, any score at or below 10 was indicating as Alzheimer's disease, and its sensitivity and specificity values were76.3% and 75% respectively. Discussion We described a new battery for apraxia, named as DEKODa, derived form a community based study designed for Turkish speaking elderly population. Lower scores of DEKODa than 10 points indicated AD. The scores for MCI subjects were similar to healthy elderly controls and different than AD. These finding imply that DEKODa can be useful for detecting AD diagnosis in elderly population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS), is a neurologically based speech sound disorder characterized with impairments in the accuracy and consistency of movements that form the basis of speech. The aim of this study was to evaluate the language and speech characteristics of a case with CAS and to investigate the effectiveness of short-term language and speech therapy. A boy aged 6 years and 11 months with CAS was included in the study. In the assessment procedure; Test of Early Language Development, Third Edition (TELD-3), Turkish version (TEDIL), Turkish Articulation and Phonology Test (SST) was used, and oral motor, stimulability and inconsistency assessments were completed. After the evaluation, speech therapy was planned in line with Nancy Kaufman’s Childhood Apraxia of Speech Intervention Method and Cued Articulation Technique. Therapy was applied once a week, in 8 sessions of 45 minutes. After the therapy, there was a decrease in the raw scores of SST and in the inconsistency ratings. Stimulability ratings were improved. These findings provide initial data on the positive effect of short term language and speech therapy specific to childhood apraxia of speech., Çocukluk çağı konuşma apraksisi (ÇÇKA), konuşmanın temelini oluşturan hareketlerin doğruluğu ve tutarlılığındaki bozukluklar ile karakterize nörolojik bir konuşma sesi bozukluğudur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, ÇÇKA olan bir vakanın dil ve konuşma becerilerini değerlendirmek ve kısa dönem uygulanan dil ve konuşma terapisinin etkililiğini araştırmaktır. Çalışmaya 6 yaş 11 aylık, ÇÇKA olan bir erkek çocuk dahil edilmiştir. Vaka; Türkçe Erken Dil Gelişimi Testi (TEDİL), Türkçe Sesletim ve Sesbilgisi Testi (SST), Oral Motor Değerlendirme, Uyarılabilirlik Değerlendirmesi ve Tutarsızlık Değerlendirmesi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Değerlendirme sonrasında Kaufman’ın ÇÇKA Müdahale Yöntemi ve Cued Articulation (İpucuna Dayalı Artikülasyon) tekniği doğrultusunda terapi planlanmıştır. Terapi haftada bir gün, 45 dakikalık 8 seans şeklinde uygulanmıştır. Terapi sonrasında SST ham puanları ve tutarsızlık oranı azalmıştır. Uyarılabilirlik oranı artmıştır.

Despite the well-known facts discerned from interesting cases of speech and language disturbances over thousands of years, the scientific background and the limitless discussions for nearly 150 years, this field has been considered one of the least important subjects in neurological sciences. In this review, we first analyze the possible causes for this "stepchild" attitude towards this subject and we then summarize the practical aspects concerning speech and language disturbances. Our underlying expectation with this review is to explain the facts concerning those disturbances that might offer us opportunities to better understand the nervous system and the affected patients.

Aim: The proposed graphemic area in the dominant hemisphere contains letter representations that are responsible for guiding the skilled movements required for writing and for recognition of the physical features of letters. Dysfunction in this system may cause apraxic agraphia. In this study, writing performance of a right-handed, left hemisphere damaged, 12-year old apraxic agraphic patient with a native language of shallow ortography is analysed. Methods: Writing performance was evaluated with several different word lists, each holding same amount of letters, novel words (non-word), words, functors, and high-imagery and low-imagery words. Non-words were derived from words by changing a single letter. Results: A selective writing impairment limited to the left hand was observed. Her deficit was graphemic in nature; she made no phonological errors during spontaneous speech and oral naming. Writing was not affected by lexical factors (grammatical class, word length, or abstract quality) or lexicality (word, non-word, functor). In the entire corpus of responses, she wrote 2 of 154 vowel letters (1.3%) and 51 of 232 consonant letters (22.0%) incorrectly. Conclusions: It is proposed that the corpus callosum carries the interhemispheric control of praxis and writing at different levels, praxis for writing carried separately from praxis in general and within praxis for writing vowels and consonants are handled separately.

Master i rehabilitering og habilitering Bakgrunn: Apraksi er en hyppig kognitiv forekomst etter hjerneslag som påvirker evnen til å utføre grunnleggende aktiviteter i dagliglivet. Forskningen på behandling og prognose er begrenset. Ergoterapeuter er de som oftest er involvert i rehabilitering ved apraksi, men intervensjoner for praksis er lite belyst. Hensikt: Målet med denne studien er å få økt kunnskap om ergoterapeuter erfaringer, resonneringer og tilnærminger i behandling med apraksipasienter. Metode: Studien har et kvalitativ design, med bruk av semistrukturerte intervjuer og en tematisk analytisk tilnærming. Resultat og konklusjon: Studien viser at ergoterapeuter primært baserer egen fagutøvelse i behandling av apraksi basert på klinisk erfaring og resonnering, i tillegg til at pasientenes preferanser, ressurser og behov er sterkt avgjørende for valg av tilnærming. Ergoterapeutene i studien anvender ulike tilnærminger i behandling av apraksi basert på helbredende- og kompenserende metoder for å øke selvstendighet og delaktighet i hverdagslige aktiviteter. Terapeutisk guiding, demonstrasjon, muntlig instruksjon, eliminering av språk, bruk av sjekklister i form av ord eller bilder og bruk av prinsipper fra feilfri lærings metoden, er blant metodene ergoterapeutene anvender i behandling av apraksi. Background: Apraxia is a common occurrence after a stroke. It affects the cognitive ability to complete basic everyday activities. The existing research on treatment and prognosis is limited. Occupational therapists are the ones who, for the most part, are involved in the rehabilitation regarding patients with apraxia, but interventions for practice is sparsely illuminated. Purpose: The aim of this study is to increase the knowledge about the occupational therapists’ experiences, reasonings and approaches in treatment of patients with apraxia. Method: This study has a qualitative design. It uses semi-structured interviews and a thematic analytical approach. Results and conclusion: This study shows that occupational therapists primarily base their own professional practice in treatment of apraxia based on clinical experience and reasoning. The study also shows that the patient’s preferences, resources and needs are also very decisive when it comes to selecting an approach. The occupational therapists in the study implement different approaches to the treatment of apraxia based on remediale and adaptive functional approaches to increase independency and involvement in everyday activities. Therapeutic guiding, demonstration, oral instruction, elimination of language, use of checklists in form of words or pictures, and the use of principles from the errorless learning method, is amongst the methods that occupational therapists use in the treatment of apraxia.

Apraksi veya bir diğer ismi ile dispraksi, herhangi bir nöropsikolojik bozukluk veya hareket bozukluğu olmadan, öğrenilmiş hareketin veya nesneli veya iletişimsel olacak şekilde hedeflenen davranışın yerine getirilememesi durumudur. İnmede çok sık rastlanan bir bulgu olmakla beraber başka nörolojik bozukluklara da eşlik edebildiği görülmüştür. Apraksiyi tanımlamak ve alışıldık nörolojik rehabilitasyon programına uygun apraksi tedavi programını eklemek hem fizik tedavinin etkinliğini arttırır hem de hastanın günlük yaşam aktivitelerini kolaylaştıracaktır. Bu nedenle apraksiyi tespit etmek son derece önemlidir. Türkiye'de apraksi muayenesinde kullanılacak kapsamlı, geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı TULIA (Üst Ekstremite İçin Apraksi Testi)'nın Türkiye'de geçerlik ve güvenilirliğini araştırmaktır. Bu çalışma inme hastası 68 kişi ve sağlıklı 37 kişi ile yapılmıştır. Güvenilirlik için uygulanan analizlerde TULIA alt testlerinin Cronbach alfa iç tutarlılık katsayısının 0,92-0,98 arasında olduğu; test – tekrar test korelasyonunun yüksek olduğu (r = ,999; p < 0,001); uygulayıcılar arası güvenilirlik korelasyonunun yüksek olduğu (r = ,993; p < 0,001) görülmüştür. Geçerlik için yapılan ayırt edici geçerlik analizinde iki ortalama arasındaki fark ileri derecede anlamlı bulunmuştur (t = -7,687, P < 0,001).Sonuç olarak, TULIA (Üst Ekstremite İçin Apraksi Testi)'nin Türkçe formunun geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Apraxia, also known as dyspraxia, without any neuropsychological disorder or movement disorder, is the lack of learned oriented transitive or intransitive movement. Although it is a common finding in stroke, it has been observed that it can accompany other neurological disorders. To define apraxia and to add apraxia treatment procedure to the usual neurological rehabilitation program increases effectiveness of physical therapy and facilitates the daily living activities of the patient. Therefore, to determine apraxia is extremely important. There is not an extensive, valid and reliable apraxia scale in Turkey. The aim of the study is to investigate the validity and reliability of TULIA in Turkey. This study was conducted with 68 stroke patients and 37 healthy subjects. Cronbach alpha internal reliability coefficient of TULIA subtests was found to be between 0.92-0.98. Test - retest correlation was found to be high (r =, 999; p
