Tau, amyloid, and hypometabolism in the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia [PDF]
A 57-year-old right-handed woman had an 8-year history of progressive word retrieval and repetition deficits, consistent with the logopenic variant of Alzheimer disease.1 She was studied using the novel hyperphosphorylated-tau tracer 18F-AV-1451,2 in conjunction with metabolic (18F-fluorodeoxyglucose [FDG]) and β-amyloid (18F-florbetapir) PET (figure).

Abstract INTRODUCTION The Indiana University Brain Health Program was developed to support safe implementation of amyloid‐targeting therapies (ATTs) for early Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS We established Neurology Brain Health Navigators (neuroBHNs) to extend our Brain Health Navigator model into specialty care.

Lewy Body Disease is a Contributor to Logopenic Progressive Aphasia Phenotype
ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to describe clinical features, [18F]‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)‐positron emission tomography (PET) metabolism and digital pathology in patients with logopenic progressive aphasia (LPA) and pathologic diagnosis of diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD) and compare to patients with LPA with other pathologies, as well as ...

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.

Evidence for a pervasive autobiographical memory impairment in Logopenic Progressive Aphasia
Although characterized primarily as a language disorder, mounting evidence indicates episodic amnesia in Logopenic Progressive Aphasia (LPA). Whether such memory disturbances extend to information encoded pre-disease onset remains unclear. To address this question, we examined autobiographical memory in 10 LPA patients, contrasted with 18 typical ...

The presence of parkinsonism features in primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a subject of ongoing research. These features are usually more pronounced in the advanced stages of the disease, particularly in the non-fluent/agrammatic subtype, and are ...

Abstract Patients with atypical variants of Alzheimer's disease (AD) often present at a younger age with predominantly non‐amnestic impairments and a more aggressive disease course. Historically, individuals with atypical presentations have not been included in large‐scale clinical trials, which typically focus on late‐onset, sporadic amnestic ...
