A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

A simple hypothesis of executive function [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
Executive function is traditionally conceptualized as a set of abilities required to guide behavior toward goals. Here, an integrated theoretical framework for executive function is developed which has its roots in the notion of hierarchical mental models.

CSF Biomarker‐Based Cognitive Trajectories in Parkinson's Disease‐Subjective Cognitive Decline

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive complaints without objective cognitive impairment in Parkinson's Disease, termed Parkinson's Disease‐Subjective Cognitive Decline (PD‐SCD), have been associated with cognitive decline. However, its progression is heterogeneous, highlighting the need for improved identification of patients at greater risk for deterioration ...

Pulse Pressure, White Matter Hyperintensities, and Cognition: Mediating Effects Across the Adult Lifespan

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate whether pulse pressure or mean arterial pressure mediates the relationship between age and white matter hyperintensity load and to examine the mediating effect of white matter hyperintensities on cognition. Methods Demographic information, blood pressure, current medication lists, and Montreal Cognitive Assessment ...

Imaging the genetics of executive function [PDF]

Biological Psychology, 2008
Recent advances in neuroimaging technologies have allowed ever more detailed studies of the human brain. The combination of neuroimaging techniques with genetics may provide a more sensitive measure of the influence of genetic variants on cognitive function than behavioural measures alone.

Effects of Acute Laboratory Stress on Executive Functions

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Recent research indicates that stress can affect executive functioning. However, previous results are mixed with respect to the direction and size of effects, especially when considering different subcomponents of executive functions.
