Towards affordable biomarkers of frontotemporal dementia: A classification study via network's information sharing.
Developing effective and affordable biomarkers for dementias is critical given the difficulty to achieve early diagnosis. In this sense, electroencephalographic (EEG) methods offer promising alternatives due to their low ...
Integration of Intention and Outcome for Moral Judgment in Frontotemporal Dementia: Brain Structural Signatures
(Karger, 2016)
Background: Moral judgment has been proposed to rely on a distributed brain network. This function is impaired in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), a condition involving damage to some regions of this ...
One family, one gene and three phenotypes: A novel VCP (valosin-containing protein) mutation associated with myopathy with rimmed vacuoles, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
Background: VCP (valosin-containing protein gene) variants have been associated with peripheral and central neurodegenerative processes, including inclusion body myopathy (IBM), Paget disease of bone (PDB), frontotemporal ...
Structural anatomical investigation of long term memory deficit in behavioral frontotemporal dementia
(IOS Press, 2018)
Although a growing body of work has shown that behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) could present with severe amnesia in approximately half of cases, memory assessment is currently the clinical standard to ...
Altered phobic reactions in frontotemporal dementia: A behavioural and neuroanatomical analysis
(Elsevier, 2020)
Introduction: Abnormal behavioural and physiological reactivity to emotional stimuli is a hallmark of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), particularly the behavioural variant (bvFTD). As part of this repertoire, altered phobic ...
Social Cognition and Behavioral Assessments Improve the Diagnosis of Behavioral Variant of Frontotemporal Dementia in Older Peruvians With Low Educational Levels
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Background: The behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), characterized by early behavioral abnormalities and late memory impairment, is a neurodegenerative disorder with a detrimental impact on patients and ...
Exploring signatures of neurodegeneration in early-onset older-age bipolar disorder and behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia
Introduction: Older-age bipolar disorder (OABD) may involve neurocognitive decline and behavioral disturbances that could share features with the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), making the differential ...
Primary empathy deficits in frontotemporal dementia
Loss of empathy is an early central symptom and diagnostic criterion of the behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). Although changes in empathy are evident and strongly affect the social functioning of bvFTD ...
Multidimensional inhibitory signatures of sentential negation in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia
(2022)
Background: Processing of linguistic negation has been associated to inhibitory brain mechanisms. However, no study has tapped this link via multimodal measures in patients with core inhibitory alterations, a critical ...
