Summary

This study looked at 77 people with Alzheimer's or frontotemporal dementia to understand why some lose awareness of their condition (anosognosia). Researchers used brain scans and EEG to measure how the brain processes mistakes and emotions. The goal is to find brain markers that could one day help improve self-awareness in early-stage patients.
