“…These include impairments in cognition (eg, from medial temporal and dorsolateral frontal degeneration), mood (eg, amygdala degeneration), and behavior (eg, amygdala and orbitofrontal degeneration). Although the cognitive difficulties (including short‐term memory problems and executive dysfunction) are similar to those seen in other neurodegenerative diseases, the mood and behavioral symptoms may be the most concerning, especially to family members and coworkers [35]. These include depressed mood and/or apathy, emotional instability, suicidal ideation and behavior, and problems with impulse control, especially having a “short fuse.” Substance abuse (sometimes fatal) and suicide are not uncommon.…”

“…Las funciones ejecutivas (fe) son un constructo de naturaleza elusiva formada por múltiples procesos cognitivos vinculados con la planificación y regulación de la conducta orientada hacia la consecución de metas (Lezak, 2004). Existen diferentes componentes como la memoria de trabajo, planificación, control inhibitorio, flexibilidad cognitiva, fluencia léxica, razonamiento abstracto y toma de decisiones que forman parte de las fe (Stern et al, 2011). Se considera que el lóbulo frontal es la principal base neuroanatómica que sustenta el funcionamiento de las fe (Leh et al, 2010).…”
