- Neuropsychiatric Symptoms, Caregiver Burden and Distress in Behavioral-Variant Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease(2015) LIMA-SILVA, Thais Bento; BAHIA, Valeria Santoro; CARVALHO, Viviane Amaral; GUIMARAES, Henrique Cerqueira; CARAMELLI, Paulo; BALTHAZAR, Marcio Luiz; DAMASCENO, Benito; BOTTINO, Cassio Machado; BRUCKI, Sonia Maria; NITRINI, Ricardo; YASSUDA, Monica SanchesBackground/Aims: We aimed to compare caregiver burden and distress in behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and to investigate which factors contribute to caregivers' burden and distress. Methods: Fifty patients and their care-givers were invited to participate. Among the patients, 20 had a diagnosis of bvFTD and 30 had AD. Caregivers and patients were statistically equivalent for age, sex, education and dementia severity according to Clinical Dementia Rating. The protocol included the Short Zarit Burden Inventory, the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), Disability Assessment for Dementia (DAD), the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia (CSDD), Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination-Revised, the Executive Interview with 25 Items, Direct Assessment of Functional Status and the Geriatric Anxiety Inventory (GAI). Results: In the NPI, caregivers of bvFTD patients reported a higher presence and severity of neuropsychiatric symptoms and caregiver distress compared to caregivers of AD patients. There was no significant difference in the perceived burden. In bvFTD, DAD and GAI scores were significantly correlated with burden, whereas in AD, burden was correlated with CSDD and NPI scores. Psychiatric symptoms were associated with distress in both groups. Conclusions: Caregivers of bvFTD patients experienced higher levels of distress than caregivers of AD patients. Patients' functional limitations were associated with burden of caregivers of bvFTD patients, whereas neuropsychiatric symptoms were associated with caregiver strain in both groups. (C) 2015 S.

- Translation, cross-cultural adaptation and applicability of the Brazilian version of the Frontotemporal Dementia Rating Scale (FTD-FRS)(2013) LIMA-SILVA, Thais Bento; BAHIA, Valéria Santoro; CARVALHO, Viviane Amaral; GUIMARÃES, Henrique Cerqueira; CARAMELLI, Paulo; BALTHAZAR, Márcio; DAMASCENO, Benito; BOTTINO, Cássio Machado de Campos; BRUCKI, Sônia Maria Dozzi; MIOSHI, Eneida; NITRINI, Ricardo; YASSUDA, Mônica SanchesABSTRACT Background: Staging scales for dementia have been devised for grading Alzheimer's disease (AD) but do not include the specific symptoms of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Objective: To translate and adapt the Frontotemporal Dementia Rating Scale (FTD-FRS) to Brazilian Portuguese. Methods: The cross-cultural adaptation process consisted of the following steps: translation, back-translation (prepared by independent translators), discussion with specialists, and development of a final version after minor adjustments. A pilot application was carried out with 12 patients diagnosed with bvFTD and 11 with AD, matched for disease severity (CDR=1.0). The evaluation protocol included: Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination-Revised (ACE-R), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Executive Interview (EXIT-25), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), Frontotemporal Dementia Rating Scale (FTD-FRS) and Clinical Dementia Rating scale (CDR). Results: The Brazilian version of the FTD-FRS seemed appropriate for use in this country. Preliminary results revealed greater levels of disability in bvFTD than in AD patients (bvFTD: 25% mild, 50% moderate and 25% severe; AD: 36.36% mild, 63.64% moderate). It appears that the CDR underrates disease severity in bvFTD since a relevant proportion of patients rated as having mild dementia (CDR=1.0) in fact had moderate or severe levels of disability according to the FTD-FRS. Conclusion: The Brazilian version of the FTD-FRS seems suitable to aid staging and determining disease progression.
conferenceObject Cross-cultural Adaptation and Validity of the Brazilian version of the Clinical staging scale and disease progression in frontotemporal dementia(2016) SILVA, T. Bento Lima da; BAHIA, V.; CECCHINI, M. Amore; CASSIMIRO, L.; CARVALHO, V. Amaral; GUIMARAES, H. Cerqueira; CARAMELLI, P.; BALTHAZAR, M.; DAMASCENO, B.; BOTTINO, C.; BRUCKI, S.; SOUZA, L. Cruz de; MIOSHI, E.; NITRINI, R.; YASSUDA, M.- The Geriatric Anxiety Inventory in primary care: applicability and psychometric characteristics of the original and short form(2016) SILVA, Lais dos Santos Vinholi e; OLIVEIRA, Glaucia Martins de; YOKOMIZO, Juliana Emy; SARAN, Laura Ferreira; BOTTINO, Cassio Machado de Campos; YASSUDA, Monica SanchesBackground: Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) has negative implications for people's lives, but is often underdiagnosed in the elderly. There is a shortage of instruments to assess geriatric anxiety. Objectives: To analyze the applicability and psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Geriatric Anxiety Inventory (GAI) and its short form (GAI-SF) within primary care. Methods: Fifty-five seniors were classified as non-demented by a multidisciplinary panel. The protocol included the GAI, the Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20), the Depression Scale D-10, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Bayer Scale for Activities of Daily Living (B-ADL) and the Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE). A sub-sample also completed the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Results: The GAI and GAI-SF showed good internal consistency (0.89; 0.62, respectively) and test-retest stability (0.58, 0.97). The GAI and GAI-SF correlated significantly with the SRQ-20 (0.74, 0.55) and BAI (0.75, 0.58). Discussion: The psychometric characteristics of the Brazilian versions of the GAI and GAI-SF suggest these instruments are suitable for application in the Brazilian elderly population within the primary care setting.
- Direct and Indirect Assessments of Activities of Daily Living in Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer Disease(2015) LIMA-SILVA, Thais Bento; BAHIA, Valeria Santoro; CARVALHO, Viviane Amaral; GUIMARAES, Henrique Cerqueira; CARAMELLI, Paulo; BALTHAZAR, Marcio Luiz Figueredo; DAMASCENO, Benito; BOTTINO, Cassio Machado de Campos; BRUCKI, Sonia Maria Dozzi; NITRINI, Ricardo; YASSUDA, Monica SanchesBackground: There is limited information about the functional profile of behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). Objective: To compare direct and indirect assessments of activities of daily living (ADLs) in bvFTD and Alzheimer disease (AD) and their relationship with cognitive performance. Methods: In all, 20 patients with bvFTD, 30 patients with AD, and 34 normal controls (NCs), matched for age, education, and severity of dementia, completed the Direct Assessment of Functional Performance (DAFS-BR) and usual cognitive measures. The Disability Assessment for Dementia (DAD) was completed by caregivers. Results: In DAFS-BR, patients with bvFTD and AD had similar performance but lower than NCs. In DAD, there were no significant differences for effective performance, but patients with bvFTD had lower scores for initiation and planning/organization. Patients with bvFTD were less impaired than AD in cognition. Conclusion: Functional changes in bvFTD seem to be better documented by indirect measures.
- Functional profile of patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) compared to patients with Alzheimer's disease and normal controls(2013) LIMA-SILVA, Thais Bento; BAHIA, Valéria Santoro; CARVALHO, Viviane Amaral; GUIMARÃES, Henrique Cerqueira; CARAMELLI, Paulo; BALTHAZAR, Márcio; DAMASCENO, Benito; BOTTINO, Cássio Machado de Campos; BRUCKI, Sônia Maria Dozzi; NITRINI, Ricardo; YASSUDA, Mônica SanchesABSTRACT There are few studies describing the functional changes in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) and it is not clear which aspects of functionality are affected by the disease. Objective: The aim of the present investigation was to characterize the functional profile of patients previously diagnosed with bvFTD. Methods: The sample consisted of 31 patients diagnosed with bvFTD, who were compared to patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) (n=31) and to healthy control subjects (NC) (n=34), matched for schooling and age. bvFTD and AD patients were matched by severity of dementia. The protocol included the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), Direct Assessment of Functional Status (DAFS-BR), Functional Activities Questionnaire (PFAQ), Disability Assessment for Dementia (DAD) and the Clinical Dementia Rating scale (CDR). Results: The group with bvFTD showed worse performance on Initiation and Planning/Organization in the DAD and on ability to feed oneself in the DAFS-BR, as well as higher scores on the PFAQ, suggesting greater dependence in the bvFTD group. Conclusion: The results suggest that individuals with bvFTD display greater functional impairment compared to AD patients with a similar degree of dementia severity and to healthy controls. Direct assessment of functionality proved unable to clearly differentiate between the dementia subtypes.
