Naming treatment in semantic and logopenic variant PPA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is an acquired impairment of language caused by neurodegenerative disease affecting language regions in the brain. Unlike aphasia caused by stroke, the language impairments in PPA gradually worsen over time as atrophy ...

Divergent longitudinal propagation of white matter degradation in logopenic and semantic variants of primary progressive aphasia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Clinico-pathological distinction of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) can be challenging at clinic presentation. In particular, cross-sectional neuroimaging signatures across the logopenic (lvPPA) and semantic (svPPA) variants are difficult ...

Dendritic location of dystrophic neurites in FTLD‐TDP type C with annexinopathy

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
The type C variant of FTLD‐TDP (TDP‐C) is defined by long dystrophic neurites that are immunopositive for both phosphorylated TDP and annexin A11 (ANXA11). Kawles et al. are the first paper to systematically show that these neurites are likely of dendritic origin.

Tumor‐related epilepsy in glioma: A multidisciplinary overview

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Seizures are a common and challenging symptom in brain tumors, affecting approximately 60% of patients. Tumor‐related epilepsy (TRE) in glioma patients requires personalized and dynamic management in a multidisciplinary environment, especially for its intricate pathophysiology and unpredictable disease evolution. This investigation provides an

Long‐read sequencing of recurrent FGF12 duplications in epilepsy: Insights into structural mechanisms and aberrant isoforms

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Fibroblast growth factor 12 (FGF12), a member of the fibroblast homologous factor family, plays a key role in the modulation of voltage‐gated sodium (Nav) channels. Pathogenic variants in the FGF12 gene leading to a gain‐of‐function mechanism and partial duplication encompassing the FGF12 gene leading to a loss‐of‐function mechanism ...

Rate and rhythm control strategies for apraxia of speech in nonfluent primary progressive aphasia

open access: yesDementia & Neuropsychologia
The nonfluent/agrammatic variant of primary progressive aphasia is characterized by apraxia of speech and agrammatism. Apraxia of speech limits patients' communication due to slow speaking rate, sound substitutions, articulatory groping, false starts and

Progressive compromise of nouns and action verbs in posterior cortical atrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Processing of nouns and action verbs can be differentially compromised following lesions to posterior and anterior/motor brain regions, respectively. However, little is known about how these deficits progress in the course of neurodegeneration.

A Realist Evaluation of the Implementation and Use of Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Four Value‐Based Healthcare Programmes

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate what works when using Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs), for whom, in what contexts, and why in four Value‐Based Healthcare (VBHC) programmes. Design Realist evaluation. Methods Evaluation of Heart Failure, Parkinson's Disease, Epilepsy and Cataract surgery programmes using data from a scoping review, documentary ...

New Aspects of Thromboangiitis obliterans (von Winiwarter-Buerger's Disease) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The existence of thromboangiitis obliterans as a clinical entity has been a matter of debate for many years. In contrast to other immunovasculitides there is no organ involvement while peripheral vessels are affected.
