Pathological progression induced by the frontotemporal dementia-associated R406W tau mutation in patient-derived iPSCs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Mutations in the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) gene are known to cause familial frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The R406W tau mutation is a unique missense mutation whose patients have been reported to exhibit Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD)-like ...

Neuropathology of frontotemporal lobar degeneration: A review

open access: yesDementia & Neuropsychologia
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is the second most common cause of presenile dementia. Three main clinical variants are widely recognized within the FTLD spectrum: the behavioural variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), semantic dementia (SD)

Mini social cognition and emotional assessment: Diagnostic performance and neural correlates in behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed at validating the Mini Social Cognition and Emotional Assessment (Mini‐SEA) in a German cohort of mildly impaired behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) patients and healthy controls. The Mini‐SEA comprises the Facial Emotion Recognition Test (FERT) and the Faux Pas Test (FPT) measuring Theory of Mind (ToM) abilities in ...

Exploring Theory of Mind abilities in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...

A gamified Faux Pas Test: Comparing psychometric properties to the pen‐and‐paper version in a Dutch population

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Psychometric properties of Tommy's Quest (TQ), a novel serious game to evaluate Theory of Mind (ToM) and the pen‐and‐paper Faux Pas Test (FPT) were assessed. Results from 67 cognitively unimpaired individuals indicated that TQ had adequate construct validity, internal consistency and test–retest reliability.

Item‐level accuracy and error patterns of the TIE‐93: Emotion recognition in individualistic and collectivistic cultural groups

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract There remains a lack of appropriately adapted neuropsychological tests for culturally, linguistically and educationally diverse populations, particularly for the evaluation of social cognition, as its assessment is essential for the early diagnosis of diseases such as frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
