Smartphone use as an efficient tool to improve anomia in primary progressive aphasia
(Taylor and Francis, 2023-03-05)
Cognitive interventions are helpful in the non-pharmacologicalmanagement of Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and otherneurodegenerative disorders of cognition, by helpingpatients to compensate for their cognitive ...
Comprehension of concrete and abstract words in patients with selective anterior temporal lobe resection and in patients with selective amygdalo-hippocampectomy
(Elsevier, 2012-01-08)
The role of the anterior temporal lobe (ATL) in semantic memory is now firmly established.
There is still controversy, however, regarding the specific role of this region in processing
various types of concepts. There ...
L’apprentissage sans erreur : un principe efficace d’intervention dans la maladie d’Alzheimer et dans l’aphasie primaire progressive
Errorless learning in cognitive rehabilitation of Alzheimer’s disease and primary progressive aphasia
(John Libbey Eurotext, 2022)
L’intervention cognitive demeure une des perspectives de prise en charge les
plus utiles, dès la phase précoce, pour aider les patients atteints de trouble neurocognitif
majeur à compenser leurs déficits cognitifs et ...
The role of the left anterior temporal lobe for unpredictable and complex mappings in word reading
(Frontiers media, 2017-04)
The anterior temporal lobes (ATLs) have been consistently associated with semantic
processing which, in turn, has a key role in reading aloud single words. This study aimed
to investigate (1) the reading abilities in ...
Differential involvement of the anterior temporal lobes in famous people semantics
(Frontiers media, 2016-08-30)
The ability to recognize a famous person occurs through semantic memory. Previous
neuroimaging studies have shown that the anterior temporal lobes (ATLs) are involved
in the recognition of famous people. However, it is ...
An examination of semantic impairment in amnestic MCI and AD : What can we learn from verbal fluency?
(Oxford University Press, 2019-04-17)
Introduction
The Verbal Fluency Test (VF) is commonly used in neuropsychology. Some studies have demonstrated a marked impairment of semantic VF compared to phonemic VF in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Since amnestic Mild ...
Subcortical amyloid relates to cortical morphology in cognitively normal individuals
(Springer, 2019-07-25)
Purpose Amyloid (Aβ) brain deposition can occur in cognitively normal individuals and is associated with cortical volume
abnormalities. Aβ-related volume changes are inconsistent across studies. Since volume is composed ...
Subcortical amyloid load is associated with shape and volume in cognitively normal individuals
Subcortical Aβ associates to morphometry
(Wiley, 2019-05-21)
Amyloid-beta (Aβ) deposition is one of the main hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. The
study assessed the associations between cortical and subcortical 11C-Pittsburgh Compound
B retention, namely in the hippocampus, ...
Naming unique entities in the semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia and Alzheimer's disease : Towards a better understanding of the semantic impairment
(Elsevier, 2016-12-07)
While the semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) is characterized by a predominant semantic memory impairment, episodic memory impairments are the clinical hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, ...
An examination of semantic performance in mild cognitive impairment progressors and nonprogressors
(American psychological association, 2024-02-15)
Background. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a risk factor for developing
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and about half of older people with MCI will progress to AD
within the next five years. The aim of the present study ...
