Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a common cause of early onset dementia with behavioral variant FTD (bvFTD) being the most common form. bvFTD is characterized clinically by behavioral and personality changes, eating abnormalities, and pathologically, by systemic lipid dysregulation that impacts on
Patients with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) exhibit changes in eating behavior that could potentially affect lipid levels.
This study aimed to document changes in lipid metabolism across the ALS-FTD spectrum to identify potential relationships to eating
Behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is the most prevalent form of FTD syndromes. bvFTD is characterized clinically by changes in behavior and cognition and pathologically by focal brain atrophy and concomitant loss of lipids. bvFTD is further characterized by eating abnormalities that
OBJECTIVE
To document the metabolic changes in frontotemporal dementia, including serum cholesterol and insulin levels, and compare and contrast these changes to motor neuron disease, where metabolism is proposed to affect disease progression.
METHODS
A cohort of 90 patients with dementia (31
