TL;DR: Occupation selection occurring in early adulthood is related to lateralized brain asymmetry in patients who develop FTLD decades later in the relatively deficient hemisphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postictal violence and epilepsy
TL;DR: The case of a rare patient with directed aggression as a postictal phenomenon is reported, the literature on epilepsy and violence is reviewed and a greater occurrence of violence among those with seizures as compared with those without seizures is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acquired extroversion associated with bitemporal variant of frontotemporal dementia.
TL;DR: The authors present three patients with acquired extroversion who met criteria for FTD and all three patients exhibited predominant bilateral temporal involvement as determined with functional neuroimaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mario F. Mendez,William Ottowitz,Charles V. Brown,Jeffrey L. Cummings,Kent M. Perryman,M. Mandelkern +5 more
TL;DR: Dementia patients with severe leukoaraiosis and bilateral temporoparietal hypometabolism may have predominant AD; those who lack this pattern and have confluent leukoARaiosis may have a greater contribution from VaD.
