Patterns of Decline on Language Testing in Primary Progressive Aphasia [PDF]

, 2014
The aim of this study was to investigate patterns of decline on language testing in subtypes of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and to examine the effects of other variables on rate of decline.

Early alteration of the locus coeruleus in phenotypic variants of Alzheimer’s disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Neuropathological studies showed early locus coeruleus (LC) neuronal loss associated with tauopathy in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). We used the LC signal intensity (LC‐I) on 3T MRI to assess the LC integrity in AD (n = 37) and controls (n = 17).

Spelling Intervention in Post-Stroke Aphasia and Primary Progressive Aphasia

Behavioural Neurology, 2013
Spelling–a core language skill–is commonly affected in neurological diseases such as stroke and Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA). We present two case studies of the same spelling therapy (learning of phoneme-to-grapheme correspondences with help from ...

Effects of Cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Bilingual Logopenic Primary Progressive Aphasia

Journal of Alzheimer's Disease Reports
Background: Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a language-based dementia, causing progressive decline of language functions. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can augment effects of speech-and language therapy (SLT).

Transcranial direct current stimulation over the temporal-parietal junction yields no lexical-semantic effects in logopenic primary progressive aphasia: a double-blind sham-controlled study

NeuroImage: Clinical
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has generated some promising outcomes in primary progressive aphasia (PPA). The logopenic variant (lv-PPA), one of the most frequent PPA phenotypes, erodes the temporal-parietal junction (TPJ) generating ...

Utilization of resting-state electroencephalography spectral power in convolutional neural networks for classification of primary progressive aphasia

NeuroImage: Reports
We investigated relative power spectral density (PSD) in primary progressive aphasia (PPA) in delta, theta, alpha, and beta frequency bands in eyes open and closed resting-state electroencephalography (EEG).
