    Extractions: A type of aphasia appearing gradually and gradually worsening without any major change in other cognitive functions. It is regarded by some authors as a syndrome which may be due to various degenerative diseases of the cerebral cortex (notably alzheimer disease, owing to its frequency), while others see in it an autonomous disease related to a neuropathological process that is distinct from the main degenerative dementias. The principal clinical peculiarity of primary progressive aphasia is that it spares the patient's autonomy for a long time, but ultimately turns into global dementia.

    Patient 35. Summary and Discussion George M. Ringholz, MD, Ph.D. DiagnosisProgressive Nonfluent Aphasia (formerly primary progressive aphasia)  
    http://www.bcm.tmc.edu/neurol/challeng/pat35/summary.html
    
    Extractions: Diagnosis: Progressive Non-fluent Aphasia (formerly Primary Progressive Aphasia) This patient's condition began with dysnomia and progressed to a severe expressive language disorder over the course of approximately five years. His current status also reflects early deficits in frontal lobe executive functioning (maintenance of task set and planning and execution of complex drawings). There is relative preservation of visuospatial skills. The deficits in memory seen affect both verbal and non-verbal domains. However, the patient does not show global memory impairment in terms of his orientation to time. There is relative preservation of personality and no history of socially inappropriate behavior, apathy, restricted affect, or amimia. These findings are suggestive of a primary progressive aphasia that has begun to involve the frontal lobes. A familial form of frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism (FTDP-17) also has been identified. Clinical features include personality changes, hyperorality, nonfluent aphasia, bradykinesia, rigidity, and impairment of executive functions. The inheritance is autosomal dominant with a pathological locus mapped to a 2 cM interval on 17q21-22. The gene for the microtubule-associated protein tau is located in this region, and tau-positive neuronal inclusions have been demonstrated in many of these family members. More than 10 exonic and intronic mutations in the tau gene have been identified in patients with familial FTDP-17. Missense mutations including P301L, V337M, and R406W have been shown to disrupt cytoskeletal networks of microtubules and/or result in an accelerated aggregation of tau into filaments.

    http://www.angelfire.com/ia/dougkeck/picksinfo.html
    
    Extractions: Many doctors now prefer to reserve the name "Pick's" for just one of the types of changes in the brain tissue (histology) that may be seen with the disease. You may come across several different names which are explained below: Frontotemporal lobar degeneration, frontotemporal dementia, semantic dementia and primary progressive aphasia. Many doctors now prefer this name for the disease. Patients who would have previously been told they had Pick's Disease may now be told they have frontotemporal lobar degeneration. The name refers to the parts of the brain that are affected: the frontal and temporal lobes (at the front and side of the brain respectively). Frontotemporal lobar degeneration can present with three different patterns of symptoms: frontotemporal dementia, semantic dementia or primary progressive aphasia. In frontotemporal dementia the frontal lobes (controlling behaviour, organisation and planning) are affected first, whilst in semantic dementia it is the temporal lobes (controlling language) that are affected first. In primary progressive aphasia, the disease starts in an area at the back of the frontal lobes and front of the temporal lobes.

    Extractions: R ECENT A RTICLES OF I NTEREST IN N EUROLOGY A new study, published in the October 15 JAMA, At three months, in comparison with the routine care patients, more patients in the combined exercise and caregiver training program, known as Reducing Disability in Alzheimer Disease (RDAD), group exercised at least 60 minutes per week and had fewer days of restricted activity. Patients in the RDAD group also had improved scores for physical role functioning compared with worse scores for those in the routine medical care group. People in the RDAD disease group had improved scores on the Cornell Depression Scale for Depression in Dementia while the routine medical care group had worse scores. At two years, people in the RDAD group continued to have better physical role functioning scores than did those in the routine medical care group and showed a trend for less institutionalization due to behavioral disturbance. For study participants with higher depression scores at baseline, those in the RDAD disease group improved significantly more at three months on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and maintained that improvement at 24 months. The authors suggested that caregivers may also have experienced improved physical health and well-being, though caregiver benefits were not formally measured as part of the study. Suggested Reading

    Extractions: (advertisement) Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: dementia lacking distinctive histopathology, frontal lobe degeneration, frontal lobe dementia, frontotemporal dementia, frontotemporal dementia linked to chromosome 17, primary progressive aphasia, progressive subcortical gliosis Background: Pick disease (named after Arnold Pick) is a progressive dementia defined by clinical and pathologic criteria. Unlike Alzheimer disease and other dementias that present with cognitive deficits localized to the posterior (parietal) cortex, Pick disease typically affects the frontal and/or temporal lobes. First described in 1892, with the defining pathologic characteristics first reported by Alois Alzheimer in 1911, Pick disease now is considered by some to be part of a "complex" of neurodegenerative disorders with similar or related histopathologic and clinical features (Kertesz, 1994; Kertesz, 1997). Nomenclature history Frontotemporal dementia (of which Pick disease is an example) is a broader term including Pick disease. Frontal lobe dementia is a term signifying neuropsychological features localizing to the frontal lobes. Clinically, Pick disease may be identical or very similar to "frontal lobe degeneration" (Miller, 1997).

    Extractions: Primaire Progressieve Afasie Wat is afasie? Zoals al onze lezers weten, is afasie een taalstoornis, waarbij mensen van het ene op het andere moment moeite hebben met spreken, begrijpen, lezen en/of schrijven. Afasie is altijd het gevolg van hersenletsel, meestal een CVA (Cerebro Vasculair Accident, een beroerte) of een trauma. De gevolgen van afasie verschillen van persoon tot persoon - vaak wordt nog wel enige verbetering bereikt door logopedische behandeling. Wat is Primaire Progressieve Afasie (PPA)? Bestaat er hulp voor mensen met PPA? Waar vind ik meer informatie over PPA? Mensen die het Engels goed beheersen en toegang hebben tot het Internet, kunnen een kijkje nemen op de site van de National Aphasia Association ( www.aphasia.org ) U kunt zich ook abonneren op de PPA-newsletter (ook in het Engels): wie beschikt over een Internetaansluiting gaat naar www.brain.nwu.edu/core/ppa.htm ; anderen kunnen contact opnemen met het Northwestern Alzheimers' Disease Center PPA News, 320 E.
