Validity and reliability of the Pain Assessment in Impaired Cognition 15 (PAIC15) observation scale in persons with aphasia

BMC Neurology
Background The use of self-report pain scales in persons with aphasia can be challenging due to communication and cognitive problems, while for assessing pain self-report pain is considered the gold standard (Harrison RA, Field TS.

Semantic Complexity In Treatment Of Naming Deficits In Aphasia: Evidence From Well-Defined Categories [PDF]

, 2008
Purpose: Our previous work on manipulating typicality of category exemplars during treatment of naming deficits has shown that training atypical examples generalizes to untrained typical examples but not vice versa. In contrast to natural categories that

Frontotemporal dementia: Clinical aspects, genetics, and neuropathology of a family with a C9ORF72 expansion in Argentina

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Immunohistochemistry for TDP‐43: (A)—Dentate gyrus; (B)—Temporal lobe. Abstract Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common cause of early‐onset dementia, typically manifesting before the age of 65, with a mean onset at 58 years. FTD may encompass a spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders resulting from frontotemporal lobar degeneration ...

A lesion and connectivity-based hierarchical model of chronic aphasia recovery dissociates patients and healthy controls

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2019
Traditional models of left hemisphere stroke recovery propose that reactivation of remaining ipsilesional tissue is optimal for language processing whereas reliance on contralesional right hemisphere homologues is less beneficial or possibly maladaptive ...

Distinct regional patterns of synaptic vulnerability across hippocampal and parahippocampal subregions in Alzheimer's disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
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.

How artificial intelligence is shaping neuropsychology: A focus on cognitive assessment of neurodegenerative disorders

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms are revolutionising the world, and they have the potential to revolutionise neuropsychology as well. A particularly fruitful field for this revolution is the cognitive assessment of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Mild Cognitive ...

A double dissociation between memory span and word processing among neurological patients attests to the functional independence of verbal short‐term memory

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reports of patients with impaired verbal short‐term memory are central to the debate of whether there are independent short‐term stores or whether immediate repetition is supported by activated long‐term memory. Patients with selective impairments of verbal short‐term memory support models with independent buffers.
