Anomia is present pre-symptomatically in frontotemporal dementia due to MAPT mu...
Bouzigues, Arabella; Russell, Lucy L.; Peakman, Georgia; Bocchetta, Martina; Greaves, Caroline V.; Convery, Rhian S.; Todd, Emily; Rowe, James B.Introduction: A third of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is caused by an autosomal-dominant genetic mutation in one of three genes: microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) and progranulin (GRN). Prior studies of prodromal FTD have identified impaired executive function and social cognition early in the disease but few have studied naming in detail. Methods: We inves...

Franklin, Hannah D; Russell, Lucy L; Peakman, Georgia; Greaves, Caroline V; Bocchetta, Martina; Nicholas, Jennifer; Poos, Jackie; Convery, Rhian SBackground: Although social cognitive dysfunction is a major feature of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), it has been poorly studied in familial forms. A key goal of studies is to detect early cognitive impairment using validated measures in large patient cohorts. Methods: We used the Revised Self-Monitoring Scale (RSMS) as a measure of socioemotional sensitivity in 730 participants from the genetic FTD initiative...
Impairment of episodic memory in genetic frontotemporal dementia: A GENFI study
Poos, Jackie M; Russell, Lucy L; Peakman, Georgia; Bocchetta, Martina; Greaves, Caroline V; Jiskoot, Lize C; van der Ende, Emma L; Seelaar, HarroIntroduction:We aimed to assess episodic memory in genetic frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with the Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT). Methods: The FCSRT was administered in 417 presymptomatic and symptomatic mutation carriers (181 chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 [C9orf72], 163 progranulin [GRN], and 73microtubule-associated protein tau [MAPT]) and 290 controls.Group differences and correlations w...
