Annotation | The authors studied the frequency of antisocial behaviours in fronto-temporal dementia (FTD) where pathology is anterior frontal-temporal, compared with Alzheimer's disease (AD) where pathology is primarily posterior temporal-parietal. This study supports a relationship between frontal-temporal dysfunction and certain types of antisocial activities. |
