| Exclusion_criteria |
In the NBB reports, we were unable to distinguish PPA aphasias from other forms of aphasia. Therefore, we scored any instance in which the word aphasia (dysphasia) is mentioned. Please note: Literally, the word ‘aphasia’ means absence of language whereas dysphasia is a (mild to severe) loss of language. However, the word aphasia is frequently used as a synonym for dysphasia. We scored as TRUE: dysphasia (dysphasia); phatic (fatic) problems; aphasia (afasia). We did NOT score: anything else except other misspellings that were clearly interpreted. PLEASE NOTE: For this parameter we cannot make any distinction between the different forms of aphasia. |
