(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, ...

The goal of this study was to investigate the specific patterns of memory breakdown in patients suffering from early-onset Alzheimer’s disease (EOAD) and late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD). Twenty EOAD patients, twenty ...
Visual fixation in the intensive care unit: a strong predictor of post-traumatic amnesia and long-term recovery after moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury
Visual fixation in the ICU
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2016-12-01)
Objective: We examined whether visual fixation at 24h of intensive care unit (ICU) admission is superior to the initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score to predict PTA duration and long-term TBI recovery. Design: Two-phase ...

(2016-03-29)
Objective
: Episodic memory impairment is at the core of amnestic mild cognitive impair-
ment (aMCI) and Alzheimer
’
s disease (AD). The origin of memory deficits may result either
from an encoding deficit or from an ...
