Objective: To estimate the prevalence of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and other degenerative early-onset dementias in a geographically defined population. Background: Early-onset dementia (at age <65 years) results in high psychiatric morbidity and caregiver burden. Prevalence figures are available for early-onset AD but not for FTD, a dementia that is almost invariably of early onset

FTD is also frequently referred to as frontotemporal dementia, frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), or Pick’s disease. A group of disorders caused by cell degeneration, frontotemporal dementia (FTD) affects the brain, specifically its areas associated with personality, behavior and language. Once considered a rare disease, FTD may account for 20-50% of dementia cases in people younger than age 65, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a group of related conditions resulting from the progressive degeneration of the temporal and frontal lobes of the brain. These areas of the brain play a significant role in decision-making, behavioral control, emotion and language.

The nerve cell damage caused by frontotemporal dementia leads to loss of function in these brain regions, which variably cause deterioration in behavior, personality and/or difficulty with producing or comprehending language.There are a number of different diseases that cause frontotemporal degenerations. The two most prominent are 1) a group of brain disorders involving the protein tau and 2) a group of brain dis… 2021-02-15 FTD is the diagnosis for about 5 percent of people with major neurocognitive disorders (dementia). About 70 percent of cases begin before age 65, so it is a more common dementia among the “young old.” FTD involves degeneration of the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain.
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a complex progressive condition of the brain which can affect behaviour, personality and language. FTD occurs less often than other types of dementia like Alzheimer’s Disease or vascular dementia. It is generally diagnosed in people between the ages of 45 and 65.
There are key differences between FTD and Alzheimer’s. FTD is also a commonly referred to as frontotemporal generation, fronto-temporal lobar degeneration, or Pick’s disease. What Causes Frontotemporal Dementia? The current cause of FTD is unknown. Researches have linked certain subtypes of FTD to mutations on several genes. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and other degenerative early-onset dementias in a geographically defined population.

The dementia cohort in The Swedish BioFINDER Study consists of 500 cases of Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD) or other
It is generally diagnosed in people between the ages of 45 and 65. The Bluefield Project was established in 2010 to fund research directed towards curing frontotemporal dementia (FTD). FTD is a devastating, early-onset degenerative brain disease and is recognized as a common cause of dementia in people under the age of 60 years. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative condition. It is the most common cause of dementia under age 60 years. FTD generally impacts the parts of the brain involved with behavior, language and executive functioning (planning, organization). 2012-05-09 Frontotemporal dementia syndromes (FTD) are a family of neurodegenerative disorders defined by insidious onset and progressive changes in comportment, personality or language.
