Modifiable psychosocial risk factors and delayed onset of dementia in older populations: analysis of two prospective US cohorts

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2022
Objective Preventing Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) fundamentally equates to delaying onset. Thus, we quantified associations of modifiable, psychosocial risk factors to years of delayed onset of dementia.Design Two prospective cohorts (n=2860) with negative ...

Epidemiological Characteristics of Dementia and Its Correlation with Multimorbidity among Residents Aged 65 and Above [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo quanke yixue, 2023
Background In the context of aging society in China, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease increases and multimorbidity becomes more common with years. However, the extensive investigations of Alzheimer's disease in Hunan province have not been

Cognitive Decline Detection for Alzheimer’s Disease Patients Through an Activity of Daily Living (ADL)

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
There are conventional screening instruments for the detection of cognitive impairment, but they have a reduced ecological validity and the information they present could be biased.

Biomedicine and Informatics Model of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2007
In a perspective of biomedicine and informatics, the mechanism of Alzheimer's, senile amnesia, or other aging-associated and cognitive impairment related diseases involve four important informative processing procedures: propagation, consolidation, retrieval and cognition, In this study, we systematically model the four procedures based on published ...

Survey Based Study: Classification of Patients with Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Science, 2020
 Neuroimaging is a description, whether in two-dimensions (2D) or three-dimensions (3D), of the structure and functions of the brain. Neuroimaging provides a valuable diagnostic tool, in which a limited approach is used to create images of the focal sensory system by medicine professionals.

Novel Alzheimer risk genes determine the microglia response to amyloid‐β but not to TAU pathology

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2020
Polygenic risk scores have identified that genetic variants without genome‐wide significance still add to the genetic risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). Whether and how subthreshold risk loci translate into relevant disease pathways is unknown.

Select Atrophied Regions in Alzheimer disease (SARA): An improved volumetric model for identifying Alzheimer disease dementia

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2020
Introduction: Volumetric biomarkers for Alzheimer disease (AD) are attractive due to their wide availability and ease of administration, but have traditionally shown lower diagnostic accuracy than measures of neuropathological contributors to AD.

Tau hyperphosphorylation correlates with reduced methylation of protein phosphatase 2A

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2008
The down-regulation of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity is thought to play an important role in the formation of tau hyperphosphorylation in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. Methylation of the PP2A catalytic subunit at the L309 site can potently

Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease with Anti-Homocysteic acid Antibody [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Homocysteic acid (HA) may play an important role in Alzhiemer disease (AD) as we previously reported that HA induced accumulation of intraneuronal A[beta]42. In this study, we first analyzed HA levels in a mouse model of AD.

Human microglial cells synthesize albumin in brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Albumin has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease since it can bind to and transport amyloid beta, the causative agent; albumin is also a potent inhibitor of amyloid beta polymerization.
