The role of the hippocampus in the semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia : a resting‐state fcMRI study
(Wiley, 2019-09-09)
The goal of the study was to determine whether the semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) affects the intrinsic connectivity network anchored to left and right anterior hippocampus, but spares the posterior ...
An examination of semantic impairment in amnestic MCI and AD : What can we learn from verbal fluency?
(Oxford University Press, 2019-04-17)
