Cognitive impairment in older people: its implications for future demand for services and costs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This study aimed to make projections, for the next 30 years, of future numbers of older people with cognitive impairment, their demand for long-term care services and the future costs of their care under a range of specified assumptions.

Mixed Brain Pathologies in Dementia: The BrainNet Europe Consortium Experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Dementia results from heterogeneous diseases of the brain. Mixed disease forms are increasingly recognized. Methods: We performed a survey within brain banks of BrainNet Europe to estimate the proportion of mixed disease forms underlying ...

Ultrasound in Women's Health: Mechanisms, Applications, and Emerging Opportunities

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
As healthcare moves toward decentralization, ultrasound technologies are evolving from strictly imaging tools in clinical settings into versatile diagnostic and therapeutic platforms, with growing roles addressing women's health needs. This review highlights how ultrasound's underlying physical mechanisms can be harnessed to reduce disparities in women'

123I-FP-CIT SPECT imaging in early diagnosis of dementia in patients with and without a vascular component

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD) are the most common cause of dementia. Cerebral ischemia is a major risk factor for development of dementia.

Update on diverse vascular cognitive impairment (VCID)

open access: yesVeins and Lymphatics, 2022
Background. As the US population becomes increasingly older and more diverse, the number of Americans with dementia is expected to rise substantially, particularly the number of those with concomitant vascular disease.

Stochastic Nanoscale Biophysical Cues as a Basis for the Induction of Glioblastoma‐Like Transcriptional Programs in Astrocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Stochastic nanoscale physical cues induce glioblastoma (GBM)‐associated transcriptional traits in naïve astrocytes leading to spontaneous formation of spheroids. Cells within spheroids express activated‐MMP2 and a differential gene expression pattern involving P53 and NOTCH3, providing evidence for a role for changes in brain topography, as observed in

Association of MAFLD and MASLD with all-cause and cause-specific dementia: a prospective cohort study

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background Liver disease and dementia are both highly prevalent and share common pathological mechanisms. We aimed to investigate the associations between metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), metabolic dysfunction-associated ...

Association Between Onset Age of Coronary Heart Disease and Incident Dementia: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background The association of age at coronary heart disease (CHD) onset with incident dementia remains unexplored. This study aimed to examine whether younger onset age of CHD is associated with a higher risk of incident dementia.

Amyloid β Instigates Cardiac Neurotrophic Signaling Impairment, Driving Alzheimer's Associated Heart Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This research identified cardiac amyloid pathology, neurotrophic factor depletion, and reduced myocardial nerve function in a transgenic model of cerebral amyloidosis (Tg2576), Aβ‐challenged cardiomyocytes, and in human AD heart tissue. These findings carry significant diagnostic and therapeutic implications, emphasizing the role of neuro‐signaling ...

Aberrant Splicing Signatures Underpin Oligodendrocyte Damage in ALS and Neuron Loss in FTD

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating bulk and single‐nucleus RNA‐seq from ALS and FTD patients, we revealed distinct cellular dysfunctions, with severe oligodendrocyte damage in ALS and pronounced neuron loss in FTD. We identified cell‐type‐specific aberrant splicing events as potential biomarkers with robust classification performance, some of which produce de novo peptides ...
