Predicting survival in frontotemporal dementia with motor neuron disease.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether clinical and demographic features are associated with prognosis in patients with frontotemporal dementia and motor neuron disease (FTD-MND). METHODS This was a case series of FTD-MND categorized according to behavioral- or language-dominant symptoms at presentation and throughout the disease course. Demographic, clinical, imaging, and survival data were analyzed...
متن کاملSurvival profiles of patients with frontotemporal dementia and motor neuron disease.
BACKGROUND Frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are neurodegenerative diseases associated with TAR DNA-binding protein 43- and ubiquitin-immunoreactive pathologic lesions. OBJECTIVE To determine whether survival is influenced by symptom of onset in patients with frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Retrospective review...
متن کاملMotor neuron dysfunction in frontotemporal dementia.
Frontotemporal dementia and motor neuron disease share clinical, genetic and pathological characteristics. Motor neuron disease develops in a proportion of patients with frontotemporal dementia, but the incidence, severity and functional significance of motor system dysfunction in patients with frontotemporal dementia has not been determined. Neurophysiological biomarkers have been developed to...
متن کاملClinically undetected motor neuron disease in pathologically proven frontotemporal lobar degeneration with motor neuron disease.
BACKGROUND Frontotemporal lobar degeneration with motor neuron disease (FTLD-MND) is a pathological entity characterized by motor neuron degeneration and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. The ability to detect the clinical signs of dementia and motor neuron disease in pathologically confirmed FTLD-MND has not been assessed. OBJECTIVES To determine if all cases of pathologically confirmed FTL...
متن کاملTDP-43 pathology in familial frontotemporal dementia and motor neuron disease without Progranulin mutations.
Frontotemporal dementia is accompanied by motor neuron disease (FTD + MND) in approximately 10% of cases. There is accumulating evidence for a clinicopathological overlap between FTD and MND based on observations of familial aggregation and neuropathological findings of ubiquitin-positive neuronal cytoplasmatic inclusions (NCI) in lower motor neurons, hippocampus and neocortex in both condition...
