TL;DR: The pathological substrate can be predicted in a significant proportion of FTD patients, which has important implications for studies targeting mechanistic treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival in frontotemporal dementia
TL;DR: Failure to establish survival in patients with pathologically confirmed frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and to determine whether clinical or pathologic subtype affects prognosis is a malignant disorder with limited life expectancy is established.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specialization in the medial temporal lobe for processing of objects and scenes.

TL;DR: Oddity tasks administered to amnesic patients with either selective hippocampal damage or more extensive medial temporal damage provide compelling evidence that the human hippocampus and perirhinal cortex are critical to processes beyond long‐term declarative memory and may subserve spatial and object perception, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Pathological Basis of Semantic Dementia
R. Rhys Davies,John R. Hodges,Jillian J. Kril,Karalyn Patterson,Glenda M. Halliday,John H. Xuereb +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied 18 consecutive post mortem cases meeting clinical criteria for semantic dementia, including frontotemporal degeneration with ubiquitin inclusions (n = 13).
Journal ArticleDOI

Morgan D. Barense,Timothy J. Bussey,Andy C. H. Lee,Timothy T. Rogers,R. Rhys Davies,Lisa M. Saksida,Elisabeth A. Murray,Kim S. Graham +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, amnesic patients with either selective hippocampal damage or more extensive MTL damage were tested on variations of an object discrimination task adapted from the nonhuman primate literature.
