Advances in Primary Progressive Aphasia
Primary progressive aphasia is a clinical syndrome that includes a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive language impairment. Our knowledge about this disorder has evolved significantly in recent years. Notably, correlations between clinical findings and pathology have improved, and main clinical, neuroimaging, and genetic features have been described. Furthermore, primary progressive aphasia is a good model for the study of brain-behavior relationships, and has contributed to the knowledge of the neural basis of language functioning. However, there are many open questions remaining. For instance, classification into three variants (non-fluent, semantic, and logopenic) is under debate; further data about epidemiology and natural history of the diseases are needed; and, as in other neurodegenerative disorders, successful therapies are lacking. The Guest Editors expect that this book can be very useful for scholars.
Cognition in Multiple Sclerosis
We would like to acknowledge that Dr. Monica Margoni, University of Padua, Italy, has acted as a coordinator and has contributed to the preparation of the proposal for this Research Topic.
Horizon in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration Related Disorder
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) encompasses a spectrum of focal neurodegenerative disorders with progressive atrophy of the frontal and temporal lobes. FTLD-related disorders are heterogeneous clinical conditions characterized by social dysfunction and personality changes as well as impairments in language, executive and motor functions. Current clinical diagnostic criteria characterize specific manifestations of FTLD, including transtemporal behavioral dementia (bvFTD), primary progressive aphasia with agrammatic variant (avPPA) and semantic variant (svPPA) subtypes, and movement disorders, including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and FTD with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD-ALS).
Linking Neuroscience and Behavior in COVID-19
Linking Neuroscience and Behavior in COVID-19 examines the impact of the virus and pandemic on behavior and mental health. Chapters look at those with pre-existing conditions, including dementia and multiple sclerosis, and how the pandemic has burdened them further. There is also discussion on the mental health consequences the pandemic has had and continues to have on the broad populace, including depression and anxiety, as well as neurological effects of the virus itself. Finally, managing care and treatment of conditions - those preceding, caused by, or emerging for the first time during the pandemic are also detailed. Discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the virus itself on ...
Predictive Imagable Biomarkers for Brain Disorders
Recent research on Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, etc. and Neuropsychiatric disorders such as Schizophrenia, has shown strong evidence that altered brain tissue structure, physiology, and connectivity reflect the extent of severity of behavioral and physical abnormalities. With the advancement of high field strength MR technologies like MRS (Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy), fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and DTI (Diffusion Tensor Imaging), it has become possible to non-invasively measure these changes brain microenvironment in terms of levels of antioxidants; neurotransmitters; regional activity, susceptibility and connectivity du...
