Different apathy clinical profile and neural correlates in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

These results support that apathy is a complex syndrome, with different clinical expressions across different pathological conditions. Those differences in qualitative aspects of apathy seem to be associated with differences in the damage sites, as shown by our FDG-PET imaging analysis. Our findings provide a better knowledge about pathophysiology of apathy in dementia, which could have practical implications for therapeutic management. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
