The evolution of word retrieval errors during semantic feature-based therapy in bilingual aphasia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bilinguals with aphasia routinely experience anomia in one or both of their languages that may be ameliorated by language treatment. Traditionally, treatment response has been captured by binary scoring systems that measure the presence or absence of improvement without examining how word retrieval attempts may change over time as a function of treatment. This study analyzed word retrieval errors and subsequent treatment outcomes for a group of 48 Spanish-English bilinguals with aphasia to determine if longitudinal error patterns could capture language recovery. Results revealed naming improvement for trained words in the treated language and translations of trained words in the untreated language. Specific types of word errors at baseline were associated with overall improvement in both languages; furthermore, patterns of responses changed over time as a function of lexical-semantic treatment. These results demonstrate error analyses may characterize bilingual treatment outcomes and provide new evidence for mechanisms of impaired word retrieval.
