Biomarkers in the primary progressive aphasias [PDF]
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a progressive disorder of language that is increasingly recognised as an important presentation of a specific spectrum of neurodegenerative conditions.In an era of etiologically specific treatments for neurodegenerative conditions, it is crucial to establish the histopathologic basis for PPA.

Progressive compromise of nouns and action verbs in posterior cortical atrophy [PDF]
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 review on primary progressive aphasia
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a neurodegenerative disease of insidious onset presenting with progressive isolated loss of language function, without significant impairment in other cognitive domains. Current diagnostic criteria require the language dysfunction to remain isolated for at least two years, and to remain the salient feature as the ...

FDG PET and MRI in logopenic primary progressive aphasia versus dementia of the Alzheimer's type. [PDF]
The logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia is an atypical clinical variant of Alzheimer's disease which is typically characterized by left temporoparietal atrophy on magnetic resonance imaging and hypometabolism on F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose ...

Sensitivity of Speech Output to Delayed Auditory Feedback in Primary Progressive Aphasias
Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) is a classical paradigm for probing sensori-motor interactions in speech output and has been studied in various disorders associated with speech dysfluency and aphasia.

Non-verbal episodic memory deficits in primary progressive aphasias are highly predictive of underlying amyloid pathology [PDF]
Diagnostic distinction of primary progressive aphasias (PPA) remains challenging, in particular for the logopenic (lvPPA) and nonfluent/agrammatic (naPPA) variants.
