✦ Synopsis

To suddenly no longer be able to speak or to be able to express oneself except with great difficulty, be it due to brain injury, vascular accident or cerebral tumour, presents many problems for the aphasic and his family. Optimum rehabilitation of aphasic disorder is successful only if the patient, therapist, and relatives cooperate effectively. A considerable speech impairment frequently persists, often changing for the worse the lives of the patient and his family. Even if speech therapy is successful and a speech disorder is no longer evident in everyday routine, a relapse into the former aphasic disturbance is likely to occur when the patient is confronted with new situations, high demands or long-lasting strain. Therefore professional reintegration is often not possible, specifically for qualified occupations.

## Abstract Muscle atrophy is clearly related to a loss of muscle torque, but the reduction in muscle size cannot entirely account for the decrease in muscle torque. Reduced neural input to muscle has been proposed to account for much of the remaining torque deficits after disuse or immobilization.
