Longitudinal Videofluorographic Dysphagia Measures in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Abstract Background Dysphagia can lead to fatal aspiration pneumonia in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Little is known about the longitudinal progression of dysphagia or whether it differs across PSP clinical variants. Objectives To characterize longitudinal changes in dysphagia across PSP variants and determine relationships with disease ...

Treatment of Primary Progressive Aphasia [PDF]
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a neurodegenerative disease that primarily affects language functions and often begins in the fifth or sixth decade of life. The devastating effects on work and home life call for the investigation of treatment alternatives.

Synaptic loss in Alzheimer's disease predominantly affects the entorhinal cortex and parahippocampal gyrus. Amyloid‐β and p‐tau pathology show global associations with synaptic density but are limited in specific subregions. Instead, axonal damage associates with synaptic loss locally and in interconnected subregions.

Associations between TMEM106B C‐terminal fragment aggregation, age, and TDP‐43 or tau pathology
TMEM106B C‐terminal fragment (CTF) aggregation represents an age‐associated, common, diffuse phenomenon emerging after midlife with a weak association with TDP‐43 or tau pathology. These findings suggest that TMEM106B fibrillization may define a distinct axis of protein aggregation in the aging human brain. Abstract Transmembrane protein 106B (TMEM106B)

Eating behaviour profiles across the frontotemporal dementia spectrum
Abstract Altered eating behaviours are a hallmark of behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) but are less well characterised in progressive nonfluent aphasia (PNFA) and semantic dementia (SD). We investigated the frequency and onset of eating behaviour changes across the three subtypes.

An interdisciplinary approach aiding the diagnosis of primary progressive aphasia: A case report
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is one of the most common causes of early-onset dementia with primary progressive aphasia (PPA) being the second-most-frequent form of this degenerative disease.

ABSTRACT Introduction Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder and one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, with greater levels of disability being associated with lower general self‐efficacy. Reducing disability and enhancing self‐sufficiency in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia are among the primary goals of treatment and care ...

Digital seed amplification assay for TDP‐43 aggregate quantification in CSF
Abstract INTRODUCTION Dementia is commonly caused by underlying pathologies driven by misfolded protein aggregates. Although dementia subtypes have distinct mechanisms, overlapping symptoms make diagnosis without biomarkers difficult. Misdiagnosis has previously hindered drug development by enrolling patients non‐specifically in trials.
