Disease-related cortical thinning in presymptomatic granulin mutation carriers
Borrego-Écija, Sergi; Sala-Llonch, Roser; van Swieten, John; Borroni, Barbara; Moreno, Fermín; Masellis, Mario; Tartaglia, Carmela; Graff, CarolineMutations in the granulin gene (GRN) cause familial frontotemporal dementia. Understanding the structural brain changes in presymptomatic GRN carriers would enforce the use of neuroimaging biomarkers for early diagnosis and monitoring. We studied 100 presymptomatic GRN mutation carriers and 94 noncarriers from the Genetic Frontotemporal dementia initiative (GENFI), with MRI structural images. We analyzed 3T MRI...
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.; 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 73 microtubule-associated protein tau [MAPT]) and 290 controls. Group differences and correlation...

Social cognition impairment in genetic frontotemporal dementia within the GENFI...
Russell, Lucy L.; Greaves, Caroline V.; Bocchetta, Martina; Nicholas, Jennifer; Convery, Rhian S.; Moore, Katrina; Cash, David M.; van Swieten, JohnA key symptom of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is difficulty interacting socially with others. Social cognition problems in FTD include impaired emotion processing and theory of mind difficulties, and whilst these have been studied extensively in sporadic FTD, few studies have investigated them in familial FTD. Facial Emotion Recognition (FER) and Faux Pas (FP) recognition tests were used to study social cognit...
