Feb 1, 2024 · The ability of music to influence the brain is due to the brain's neuroplasticity, the ability of the brain to reorganize and adapt to new experiences. Studies have shown that musical training can bring about structural and functional changes in the brain, resulting in increased grey and white matter density, larger corpus callosum, and greater cortical remapping in areas related to music ...
First, our results indicate that listening to pleasant music can have a short-term facilitating effect on visual awareness in patients with visual neglect, which is associated with functional coupling between emotional and attentional brain regions. Second, daily music listening can improve auditory and verbal memory, focused attention, and ...

In the following, I will review most of the recent papers (after 2002) supporting the idea of brain plasticity driven by musical expertise and musical training. Major recent advances Structural brain plasticity. Recently, Hyde and colleagues published a paper strongly supporting the idea of use-dependent brain plasticity driven by musical ...

Interpretation: Vocal music listening is an effective and easily applicable tool to support cognitive recovery after stroke as well as to enhance early language recovery in aphasia. The rehabilitative effects of vocal music are driven by both structural and functional plasticity changes in temporoparietal networks crucial for emotional ...
Apr 23, 2012 · Here, we will first review previous literature on the emotional and cognitive effects of music listening in healthy persons and various clinical groups. Then we will present findings about the short- and long-term effects of music listening on the recovery of cognitive function in stroke patients and the underlying neural mechanisms of these music effects.

Jun 26, 2017 · In animal models, prolonged stress can have maladaptive effects on neuroplasticity, such as dendritic atrophy, synapse loss, and decreased hippocampal neurogenesis. 85 Elevated cortisol levels in patients with acute stroke correlates with increased infarct volume, and increases the risk of depression, poor prognosis, and fatal outcome. 86 We speculate that listening to music might lower stress ...
