Supplementary file 1_The association between cognitive inhibitory control and language per

A 2026 systematic review and meta-analysis by Ming-xi Xu, aggregating evidence from 12 studies involving 357 individuals with post-stroke aphasia. It examines the relationship between inhibitory control and language performance, reporting a pooled correlation coefficient of r = 0.339. The analysis was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines and is registered with PROSPERO.

Use Cases

• Informing aphasia assessment protocols based on the reported association between inhibitory control and language performance.
• Designing cognitive-linguistic rehabilitation interventions based on the distinct patterns found for interference control and response inhibition.
• Conducting secondary meta-analyses or systematic reviews on related topics using the included study data and methodology described.
• Developing theoretical models of post-stroke language processing that integrate executive function components.

Strengths

• Follows PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews, suggesting a structured methodology.
• Includes a sensitivity analysis and Egger's test, indicating checks for robustness and publication bias.
• Reports a specific pooled effect size (r = 0.339) with a 95% confidence interval and p-value.
• Based on data from 12 studies involving 357 individuals, providing a quantitative synthesis.

Limitations

• The dataset is a 42.2 KB DOCX file, which is a very small document likely containing summary tables and text, not raw participant-level data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting detailed suitability assessment.
• The temporal coverage of the underlying studies is not specified beyond the search end date of February 1, 2026.
