Language training for oral and written naming impairment in primary progressive aphasia: a review
- PsychologyTranslational neurodegeneration
- 2021
Overall, language training is able to induce immediate improvements of naming abilities in all variants of PPA and one factor that determines the choice of a particular approach is the compromised components of the lexical/semantic processing system.
Dysgraphia in primary progressive aphasia: Characterisation of impairments and therapy options
- Psychology
- 2014
Background: Spelling impairment is common in primary progressive aphasia (PPA). Although behavioural interventions tend to focus on spoken language, remediation of written language may be desirable,…
Primary progressive aphasia: a clinical approach
- Medicine, PsychologyJournal of Neurology
- 2018
A clinical approach to the progressive aphasias is presented, based on the experience of these disorders and directed at non-specialists, and a prospect for future progress is concluded, emphasising generic information processing deficits and novel pathophysiological biomarkers.
Language impairment in primary progressive aphasia and other neurodegenerative diseases
- Psychology, BiologyJournal of Genetics
- 2019
The relationship between PPA and NDDs like Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s and Dyslexia is unraveled and an exhaustive approach towards the treatment of PPA is offered by combining the existing language therapies with clinical and pharmacological interventions.
Dysfunctional visual word form processing in progressive alexia.
- PsychologyBrain : a journal of neurology
- 2013
The results suggest that progressive alexia is associated with a dysfunctional visual word form system, with or without substantial cortical atrophy, and demonstrate that functional MRI has the potential to reveal the neural bases of cognitive deficits in neurodegenerative patients at very early stages.

The primary progressive aphasias (PPA) are a diverse group of neurodegenerative disorders that selectively target brain networks mediating language. The pathophysiology of PPA remains poorly…

The limited range of studies for all conditions except MS suggests a need to synthesise systematically the available evidence across conditions and develop well-designed studies to provide evidence about the effectiveness of CR and other psychological interventions.

Deep Dysphasic Performance in Non-fluent Progressive Aphasia: a Case Study
- PsychologyNeurocase
- 2001
It is found that a patient (PW) with non-fluent progressive aphasia was impaired on a variety of verbal tasks that demand access to phonological representations and made semantic paraphasias and that her performance was influenced by imageability and lexical status.

Primary Progressive Aphasia: A Review
- PsychologyNeurocase
- 2004
It is concluded that there is sufficiently consistent and converging evidence from clinical and imaging studies to support the claim that PNFA and SD are distinct subgroups of PPA, but there does not appear to be sufficient evidence at this point to support further discrimination within these progressive aphasic subgroups.
An Overview on Primary Progressive Aphasia and Its Variants

- 2006
The neuropsychological data demonstrated that SD patients show the most characteristic pattern of impairment, while PNFA and LPA overlap within many cognitive domains, and the neuroimaging analysis showed left perisylvian region involvement.

The results provide a new source of evidence for the hypothesis that there are distinct neural mechanisms for accessing lexical representations of nouns and verbs in language production and rule out a semantic locus for the grammatical class effects.

Clinopathological correlations in PPA suggest an association between a specific PPA variant and an underlying pathology, although many cases of PPA are associated with an unexpected pathology.
Measuring dysgraphia: a graded-difficulty spelling test.

The construction of a graded-difficulty spelling test for adults consisting of two alternative forms each containing 30 words (GDST, Forms A and B) argues against a single site for this type of dysgraphia and argues for further refinement of this classified spelling disorder.
