Thematic Integration Impairments in Primary Progressive Aphasia: Evidence From Eye-Tracking
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a degenerative disease affecting language while leaving other cognitive facilities relatively unscathed. The agrammatic subtype of PPA (PPA-G) is characterized by agrammatic language production with impaired ...

The human intermediate nucleus (IntN), a putative ventrolateral preoptic analog, promotes non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, but its disease‐specific vulnerability is unclear. METHODS Post mortem hypothalami (n = 30; baseline [Braak stage

Apraxia in progressive nonfluent aphasia [PDF]
The clinical and neuroanatomical correlates of specific apraxias in neurodegenerative disease are not well understood. Here we addressed this issue in progressive nonfluent aphasia (PNFA), a canonical subtype of frontotemporal lobar degeneration that has

Lack of Frank Agrammatism in the Nonfluent Agrammatic Variant of Primary Progressive Aphasia
Background/Aims: Frank agrammatism, defined as the omission and/or substitution of grammatical morphemes with associated grammatical errors, is variably reported in patients with nonfluent variant primary progressive aphasia (nfPPA). This study addressed
