This is so much fun and I am learning so much. Lots of questions answered. Just one bit of a sad note. I'm too old be a med student. It would have been so rewarding. I love helping people. And, I love science. Thank you for your generous spirit.

This is a stellar video from a superb human!! Thank you. I like the way you speak in these; it draws in the listener. Good work.

This was super interesting and so throughly explained. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this!

Thank you for explaining. I got my degree in Communication Disorders and learned in great detail about Wernicke’s aphasia. Came across Wernicke’s disease and wanted to know what the connection might be. This is very informative. Thank you!!!

Aphasia patients also have intact speech comprehension. The problems come with repetition and commands. Specifically, the use of made up words and false word substitutes.

Thank you, it was a great video. By the way, the nystagmus can develop both horizontally as well as vertically (source: AMBOSS)

Is it possible to have wernicke's aphasia and be able to partly understand what is being said but unable to express oneself in a meaningful way?

[gulfwarveteran]

Sir pls uplod full CNS topic s which are there in guyton I am dying to watch them .my profs don't make any sense at all.i know I can rely on u

[DermNerd]

Stroke information is incomplete. Should be specific to inferior and/or posterior MCA stroke.

[DermNerd]

What about treatment options too? Aphasia patients need speech therapy and the practitioner should treat the underlying etiology, right?

[DermNerd]

No mention of lack of awareness about the speech problems too.

The classic symptom triad only presents in approx. 10% of people with Wernicke encephalopathy.
