Journal ArticleDOI

Dorsal and ventral pathways in language development

TL;DR: A maturational primacy of the ventral connection in the language network associating the temporal areas to the inferior frontal gyrus during early development is revealed, which is already in place at birth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Negation in the brain: modulating action representations.

TL;DR: Modulation of action representations indicates that sentential negation transiently reduces the access to mental representations of the negated information.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of bilingualism on brain reserve and metabolic connectivity in Alzheimer's dementia.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that lifelong bilingualism acts as a powerful CR proxy in dementia and exerts neuroprotective effects against neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined 99mTc-ECD SPECT and neuropsychological studies in MCI for the assessment of conversion to AD.

TL;DR: The pattern of hypoperfusion 99mTc-ECD single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and memory scores and the severity of memory deficits predict the risk of progression to probable AD dementia in MCI subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anosognosia in very mild Alzheimer's disease but not in mild cognitive impairment.

TL;DR: While most MCI patients tend to overestimate cognitive deficits when compared to their caregiver’s assessment, AD patients in early stages of disease underestimate cognitive dysfunctions, and anosognosia can be regarded as a characteristic symptom at a stage of very mild AD but not MCI.
