Flessibilità cognitiva
Test di Fluenza Verbale Fonemica
I pazienti con deficit delle funzioni esecutive mostrano:
•
•
•
•
Scarsa produzione verbale per scarsa iniziativa
Scelte secondo categoria sbagliata
Perseverazioni
Dissociazione prestazione semantica/fonemica:
FLUENZA SEMANTICA
la prestazione è migliore perché
utilizza una ricerca compatibile
a quella in atto nella vita di tutti i
giorni
FLUENZA FONEMICA
in difficoltà a causa del tipo di
strategia di ricerca insolita
Astrazione e Giudizio e Critica

1. Differenze
Es.
Nano/bambino
Cespuglio/albero
2. Proverbi
Es.
Una rondine non fa primavera
A caval donato non si guarda in bocca
3. Assurdità
Es.
Un giudice disse al condannato: “Ti condanno all’impiccagione e
spero che ciò ti serva come avvertimento”.
Un signore ricevette una lettera con scritto: “Se non dovessi
ricevere questa lettera, fammelo sapere”.
4. Classificazioni
Es.
Pantaloni, mutande, giacca, scarpe, calze
Perseverazioni e pianificazione
Perseverazioni ricorrenti
Es. Fluenza fonemica “P”:
- “pane, pasta, palo, poltrona, pane, pila, palo” …
Perseverazioni continue

Inibizione e autocontrollo
Gli aspetti più superficiali di una situazione,
anche se inutili per lo scopo del soggetto,
possono “catturare” il paziente.
Questo tipo di deficit causa la cosiddetta
“sindrome da dipendenza ambientale” (Lhermitte,
1983).
Questa sindrome è caratterizzata da due
comportamenti specifici :
 Il comportamento d’uso
 Il comportamento di imitazione

The crucial role of genetics in FTLD
• Earlier age at onset compared to AD or DLB.
• Higher positive family history (40%) for
dementia, psychiatric disturbances or
parkinsonism, compared to AD, DLB or VaD.
• No recognised enviromental risk factors or
related comorbidities compared to AD or VaD.
…it was 1997: Ann Arbour meeting
Tau protein is the key player in FTD
…. despite previous descriptions that have emphasized one or
another clinical or neuropathological feature, the kindreds share
clinical and neuropathological features….
…1998-2005
: looking at Tau biology
Pedigree
Beyond Tau Protein
….we identified an ancestral 8cM MAPT containing haplotype in
which FTLD was conclusively linked to 17q21. No MAPT mutations
were identified.
Van der Zee, 2006
…it was 2006: new player in FTLD

Se un uomo parte con delle certezze
finirà con dei dubbi, ma se si
accontenta di iniziare con qualche
dubbio, arriverà alla fine a qualche
certezza.
