Abbreviations: PPA, primary progressive aphasia; TP, temporal-parietal area; MoCA, Montreal Cognitive Assessment; MMSE, Mini–Mental State Examination; FTD, frontotemporal dementia; PPA subtypes: nf PPA, nonfluent PPA; logo PPA, logopenic PPA; sv PPA, semantic variant PPA; AD, Alzheimer's disease; hypometabolism levels: +, mild; ++, moderate; +++, severe, based on FDG-PET scans collected on participants at the time of study enrollment.
NOTE. C. naming is the spontaneous naming score obtained on the naming task from the Cambridge Semantic Battery (max = 64, normal elderly control mean = 62, standard deviation = 2).
