Mean (SD) demographic features of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal degeneration
| Age (y) | Education (y) | Duration (months) | MMSE (30 point scale) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alzheimer’s | 72.84 (8.45) | 13.79 (3.86) | 22.47 (16.84) | 19.79 (6.97) |
| Frontotemporal | 70.13 (10.42) | 14.62 (3.16) | 24.87 (24.43) | 22.06 (6.96) |
Analyses of variance showed that the patient groups did not differ in age (F(1,33)=0.73; NS), education (F(1,33)=0.48; NS), disease duration (F(1,33)=0.12; NS), or overall dementia severity according to the MMSE (F(1,33)=0.92; NS).
