Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which causes muscle weakness or wasting.In nonfluent/agrammatic variant of PPA, a person’s speaking is very hesitant, labored or ungrammatical.ĭisturbances of motor (movement or muscle) function include three disorders that are a part of the frontotemporal degeneration spectrum that produce changes in muscle or motor functions with or without behavior (bvFTD) or language (PPA) problems:.In semantic variant of PPA, individuals lose the ability to understand or formulate words in a spoken sentence.The two most distinctive forms of PPA have somewhat different symptoms: PPA normally comes on in midlife, before age 65, but can occur in late life also. Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is the second major form of frontotemporal degeneration that affects language skills, speaking, writing and comprehension. In behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia, the nerve cell loss is most prominent in areas that control conduct, judgment, empathy and foresight, among other abilities.

Some doctors still use the term "Pick's disease." Other terms you may see used to describe frontotemporal dementia include frontotemporal disorders, frontotemporal degeneration and frontal lobe disorders. The disorders grouped under frontotemporal dementia fall into three subtypes (discussed below).įrontotemporal dementia used to be called Pick's disease after Arnold Pick, M.D., a physician who in 1892 first described a patient with distinct symptoms affecting language. For reasons that are not yet known, these two groups have a preference for the frontal and temporal lobes that cause dementia. The two most prominent are 1) a group of brain disorders involving the protein tau and 2) a group of brain disorders involving the protein called TDP43. There are a number of different diseases that cause frontotemporal degeneration. That should be the only purpose for JC.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. Junction City at the most gets exit 295 to get to the Sapp Bros Travel Center. Topeak needs space from both KC and Salina. Salina, Topeka, and Kansas City is a bit much for I-70. I don't recall a place on the map where newer dlc's would give us a super long road like US-36 and not give us a marked city along it. So not trusting that dds file, I'll keep hopes up for seeing Phillipsburg or Marysville as marked. ![]() I-70 runs thru town and if the ring road comes Indianapolis, all is good. I can easily see US-36 making it to Indiana's I-465 ring road. You want plain and simple, US-36 does that for Kansas. But the road itself gives us East to West options. Whether cities are actually on US-36 in Kansas or not is to be determined. We need its start though and that point is I-70. US-36 is a pretty linear road all the way into Indianapolis. I'd like to say US-36 connecting to I-70 is a big yessss. ![]()
