Gogi Aphasia: the Early Description of Semantic Dementia in Japan
Thirty years preceding the first detailed reports of semantic dementia (SD) in western countries, Imura described a unique aphasic syndrome exhibited in Japanese patients, which he called gogi (literally, “word-meaning”) aphasia. Gogi aphasia directly corresponds to the pattern of language impairments described in SD, with the additional, language-specific deficit of kanji processing. Given the...
متن کاملGogi aphasia or semantic dementia? Neuropsychological evidence for an amodal, dynamic semantic system
Some patients with progressive fluent aphasia present with poor verbal comprehension and profound word-finding difficulties in the context of much better picture comprehension and object use. The Japanese term Gogi (literally ‘‘word-meaning’’) aphasia matches this behavioural pattern.

متن کاملShort-term Memory Impairment: Evidence from Aphasia
To determine the mechanism of STM decline following brain damage, patients with left hemisphere damage and aphasia (LHD+), patients with left hemisphere damage without aphasia (LHD-), and persons with right hemisphere dysfunction (RHD) were examined. An auditory-verbal memory task, as well as a series of visual memory tasks, consisting of designs, objects and pictures, were used. Patients with ...
متن کاملThe impact of semantic impairment on verbal short-term memory in stroke aphasia and semantic dementia: A comparative study.
This study presents the first direct comparison of immediate serial recall in semantic dementia (SD) and transcortical sensory aphasia (TSA). Previous studies of the effect of semantic impairment on verbal short-term memory (STM) have led to important theoretical advances. However, different conclusions have been drawn from these two groups. This research aimed to explain these inconsistencies....
متن کاملPatterns of Semantic Memory Impairment in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Although the semantic memory impairment has been largely documented in Alzheimer's disease, little is known about semantic memory in the preclinical phase of the disease (Mild Cognitive Impairment). The purpose of this study was to document the nature of semantic breakdown using a battery of tests assessing different aspects of conceptual knowledge: knowledge about common objects, famous people...
