b a c k ground: several studies have indicated that executive dysfunction is the main neuropsychological feature of parkinson’s disease (pd). the frontal assessment battery (fab) is a short tool for the assessment of executive functions. p u r p o s e : the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between persian version of fab scores and age, education, mini-mental state examination...
background: cognitive impairment in patients with parkinson’s disease (pd) mainly involves executive function (ef). the frontal assessment battery (fab) is an efficient tool for the assessment of efs. the aims of this study were to determine the validity and reliability of the psychometric properties of the persian version of fab and assess its correlation with formal measures of efs to provide...
Performance on the Frontal Assessment Battery is sensitive to frontal lobe damage in stroke patients
BACKGROUND The Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) is a brief battery of six neuropsychological tasks designed to assess frontal lobe function at bedside [Neurology 55:1621-1626, 2000]. The six FAB tasks explore cognitive and behavioral domains that are thought to be under the control of the frontal lobes, most notably conceptualization and abstract reasoning, lexical verbal fluency and mental fle...
OBJECTIVES To determine the potential utility of the frontal assessment battery (FAB) in assessing cognitive impairments in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), we investigated the association between the FAB score and regional gray matter volume, and ascertained whether the regional brain alterations related to cognitive impairments occur in relatively mild stage of ALS. MATERIALS AND METHOD...
AIM To apply the Frontal Assessment Battery to cirrhotic patients with or without overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) and controls. METHODS The frontal assessment battery (FAB) was applied to 87 patients with liver cirrhosis (16 with and 71 without OHE) and 40 control subjects without cirrhosis treated at the alcohol and liver outpatient clinics and the gastroenterology ward of the Cassiano An...
The Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) has been proposed as a diagnostic tool for patients with frontal lobe syndrome. Objectives To present the Brazilian version of the FAB and to show preliminary data on the performance of healthy elderly in the battery, correlating with age, education and scores in the Mini- Mental State Examination (MMSE). Methods Forty-eight healthy elderly individuals (...
BACKGROUND Assessment of frontal lobe impairment in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a matter of great importance, since it often causes ALS patients to decrease medication and nursing compliance, thus shortening their survival time. METHODS The frontal assessment battery (FAB) is a short and rapid method for assessing frontal executive functions. We investigated the applicability of th...
BACKGROUND/AIMS The Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) and the EXIT-25 have emerged as 2 widely used screening instruments for executive dysfunction, but their screening properties have not been evaluated in a head-to-head comparison. METHODS Prospective cohort study of 92 individuals presenting for cognitive assessment at a community hospital. RESULTS The EXIT-25 took longer than the FAB to ...
