Presumably, the body was repaired to true health - which also means that the brain was restored to its original state, that is, functional.
At that point, a Muggle can be revived by simply restarting her heart. A witch, apparently, requires a bit of magic.
But that suggests that you can resurrect someone non-permanently without the Stone - and possibly keep them alive indefinitely by expending constant magic on it like Harry does with his father's rock.
I would guess that the True Patronus would fail in that case, because it is no longer true that "the only thing wrong with this body is that it's dead."
