The aim of this study was to investigate the comprehension of concrete, abstract and abstract emotional words in semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and healthy elderly adults ...

Objective—To investigate the neural correlates of verbal and non-verbal semantic processing in neurodegenerative disease. Background—Semantic memory is often impaired in neurodegenerative disease. Neuropsychological and ...

Tractography based on non-invasive diffusion imaging is central to the study of human brain connectivity. To date, the approach has not been systematically validated in ground truth studies. Based on a simulated human brain ...

Despite a well-documented pattern of semantic memory (SM) impairment, the patterns of brain activation during semantic processing in svPPA still remain poorly understood. The current study aimed to investigate the neural ...

Good cognitive performance requires adherence to rules specific to the task at hand. Patients with neurological disease often make rule violation errors, but the anatomical basis for rule violation during cognitive testing ...

Background. Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) is considered a transition stage between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Two main clinical subtypes of aMCI have been identified: 1) aMCI single domain ...

Introduction In vivo clinical, anatomical and metabolic differences between posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) patients presenting with different Alzheimer's disease (AD) cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers profiles are ...

Dans cette recension des écrits nous présentons les résultats d’études comportementales et de neuroimagerie mettant en rapport la sémantique et la lecture de mots irréguliers, ainsi que la sémantique et les lobes temporaux ...

Semantic memory impairment has been documented in older individuals with amnestic Mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), who are at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD), yet little is known about the neural basis of ...

Objective—To compare music recognition in patients with frontotemporal dementia, semantic dementia, Alzheimer disease, and controls and to evaluate the relationship between music recognition and brain volume. Backgrou ...
