Frontal assessment battery and frontal atrophy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
OBJECTIVES To determine the potential utility of the frontal assessment battery (FAB) in assessing cognitive impairments in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), we investigated the association between the FAB score and regional gray matter volume, and ascertained whether the regional brain alterations related to cognitive impairments occur in relatively mild stage of ALS. MATERIALS AND METHOD...
متن کاملWidespread sensorimotor and frontal cortical atrophy in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
BACKGROUND Widespread cortical atrophy in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) has been described in neuropathological studies. The presence of cortical atrophy in conventional and scientific neuroimaging has been a matter of debate. In studies using computertomography, positron emission tomography, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and conventional T2-weighted and proton-weighted images, r...
متن کاملFrontal lobe dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. A PET study.
PET measurements of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were used to explore frontal lobe dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). An activation paradigm of executive frontal lobe function (verbal fluency), which contrasted rCBF during word generation and word repetition, was used. Two groups of ALS patients, defined by the presence or absence of cognitive impairment (ALSi) (impaired...
متن کاملFrontal assessment battery for detecting executive dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis without dementia: a retrospective observational study
OBJECTIVE The frontal assessment battery (FAB) is a quick and reliable method of screening to evaluate frontal lobe dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, previous studies were generally conducted on small samples representing different stages of disease and severity. We assessed the diagnostic accuracy of the FAB in detecting executive functions and its association with d...
