TL;DR: These criteria for the diagnosis of vascular dementia are intended as a guide for case definition in neuroepidemiologic studies, stratified by levels of certainty (definite, probable, and possible).

TL;DR: The revised criteria for behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia improve diagnostic accuracy compared with previously established criteria in a sample with known frontotmporal lobar degeneration and reflect the optimized diagnostic features, less restrictive exclusion features and a flexible structure that accommodates different initial clinical presentations.

TL;DR: Criteria that support the diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy, and that exclude diseases often confused with PSP, are presented.

TL;DR: In blind subjects, cortical areas normally reserved for vision may be activated by other sensory modalities, and positron emission tomography was used to determine whether the visual cortex receives input from the somatosensory system.

TL;DR: Although the Clock Drawing Test is certainly not a definitive indicator of Alzheimer's disease, the test is easy to administer and provides a useful measure of dementia severity for both research and office settings where sophisticated neuropsychological testing is not available.
