Frontotemporal dementia due to C9ORF72 mutations: clinical and imaging features.

TL;DR: Patients with the C9ORF72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion develop bvFTD, ALS, or FTD-MND with similar clinical and imaging features to sporadic cases, suggesting slower disease progression and thalamic atrophy represents a novel and unexpected feature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anterior temporal lobe degeneration produces widespread network-driven dysfunction

TL;DR: The findings provide a neurophysiological basis for the theory that semantic processing is orchestrated through interactions between a critical anterior temporal lobe hub and modality-selective processing nodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural basis of interpersonal traits in neurodegenerative diseases.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that interpersonal traits are subserved by complex neural networks rather than discrete anatomic areas and that brain regions related to externally focused, executive control-related processes underlie agentic interpersonal traits such as dominance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive and behavioral profile in a case of right anterior temporal lobe neurodegeneration.

TL;DR: A detailed neuropsychological, language, behavioral and neuroimaging assessment of JT, a case of right temporal lobe variant of FTLD, shows that she went from being a flexible, dominant, extraverted, person to showing rigid, submissive and introverted behaviors.
