Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a group of young-onset neurodegenerative disorders primarily affecting frontal and\/or temporal lobes. Two common clinical variants include a behavioural variant (bvFTD), presenting with primary behavioural\/personality changes arising from early prefrontal atrophy, and a semantic variant (semantic dementia or SD), displaying semantic dysfunction and conceptual knowledge loss due to early anterior temporal lobe degeneration. Although treated as independent diagnostic entities, accumulating evidence indicates overlapping behavioural, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric profiles between both syndromes. Why such overlap occurs remains unclear, however, needs resolution for improved clinical diagnosis and characterisation of both syndromes. Here, we used data-driven methods to extract neurocomputational \u2018dimensions\u2019 of behavioural, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric heterogeneity in FTD.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Early-life SES continues to impact cognitive performance later on life independently of the educational level achieved and late-life SES. The higher percent mediation for education mediated path suggests that education achievement might improve later life cognition in the face of lower early-life SES. Finally, middle-aged adults might have benefited from small, but essential, socioeconomic changes faced by Brazil during their birth and schooling decades, through better social conditions and education access, reducing the early-life effect. Our results highlight the importance of early-life and educational politics to improve cognitive aging quality in a low-\/middle-income country.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Post-mTBI daytime sleepiness, as well as depressive and somatic symptoms, positively responded to BLT. Reduced daytime sleepiness and depressive symptoms likely have important implications for neurophysiological healing, mental health status, daytime functioning and overall quality of life. Further research is necessary to explain the directional relationships (i.e. improved symptoms lead to lower daytime sleepiness).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

There is a recent growing interest in the extent to which personality is related to cognitive performance and brain functioning. We and others found robust evidence that personality affect cognitive performance in several domains across the adult lifespan, however there is little evidence how personality is associated to brain functioning, particularly brain connectivity. The aim of the current research was to investigate the association between personality traits and brain-network connectivity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Ample empirical evidence exists for executive deficits in schoolchildren with developmental language disorder (DLD). Little is known though about EF in preschoolers with DLD. Since early childhood is the primary period for both language and EF to develop, the early development of language and EF plausibly interact in an empowering or inhibitive way (see Vissers et al., 2015). Therefore, to come to insight into the aetiology of DLD, research on early EF and language development is necessary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Impaired fear learning and memory are core features of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that are subserved by the hippocampus. Some, but not all, studies report smaller hippocampal volumes in PTSD patients compared to controls, and this inconsistency may reflect underlying differences in hippocampal subregions across cohorts. We tested this in an international sample of patients and controls in the PGC-ENIGMA PTSD Working Group.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Seven participants (32%) were carriers of the APOE4, while 15 (68%) were not. Bootstrapped between-group tests indicated that APOE4 carriers evidenced accelerated decline in processing speed (p=.016) and global cognition (p=.007) compared with non-carriers. Furthermore, trends were found for working memory (p=.065) and verbal fluency (p=.062). A trend towards increased inflammatory response was observed in carriers of APOE4 (p=.054).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In prior studies (Nair et al., 2013; Nair et al., 2015), we demonstrated that children with autism showed mostly reduced connectivity especially for prefrontal-thalamic networks, accompanied by overconnectivity within temporal-thalamic networks. Given the importance of early identification of biomarkers and endophenotypes of autism, it is crucial to understand how early in the developmental process these differences in thalamocortical networks emerge.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Previous research has demonstrated heterogeneity in neuropsychological performance and biomarker profiles within MCI samples. We previously identified four empirically-derived MCI subtypes within the Alzheimer\u2019s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) MCI cohort: amnestic MCI, dysnomic MCI, dysexecutive\/mixed MCI, and a large cluster-derived normal group (34%) that was characterized by intact neuropsychological performance (despite their MCI diagnosis). The current study investigated cortical thickness profiles in these four cognitive subtypes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is believed to result in alterations in functional connectivity in intrinsically connected networks. One such network is the default mode network (DMN), which displays increased activation in absence of an externally-imposed task and decreased activation during cognitively demanding tasks. Studying factors associated with post-TBI functional connectivity in the DMN may help further elucidate the role of this network, as well as the effects of TBI on functional connectivity in general.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The goal of this presentation is to provide a critical overview of the current approaches used to examine functional brain connectivity in neurologically impaired samples. There is now a growing literature using functional imaging methods to examine brain network changes and it is a goal in this presentation to offer a critique of the current methods used to examine brain pathology and aging including possible pitfalls and advantages of each approach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
