Assessing Habitat Suitability and Exposure of the Endemic Vasconcellea candicans Under Climate Change and Urban Growth in Lima, Peru [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.This study integrated ensemble species distribution modelling and urban growth projections to evaluate current and future habitat suitability of V. candicans in the lomas ecosystems surrounding Lima under climate change and urban expansion scenarios. Results identified 2891 km2 of current high‐suitability habitat, with strong scenario‐dependent future ...

Cardiovascular risk factors and the allostatic interoceptive network in dementia [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S2, December 2025.Abstract Background Cardiovascular risk factors, such diabetes, hypertension, blood pressure, obesity, and smoking, are linked with allostatic‐interoception – the continuous monitoring of internal bodily states in anticipation of environmental demands. These risk factors are associated with dementia risk.

Impact of social determinants of health on ATN biomarkers and neurodegeneration in the ReDLat cohort [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S2, December 2025.Abstract Background Social determinants of health (SDH), including subjective socioeconomic status (SES), education, nutrition, and traumatic life events, shape neurodegenerative risk by influencing plasma AT(N) biomarkers (Aβ40, Aβ42, Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio, p‐tau181, and p‐tau217).

Characterization of functional impairment in Latin American individuals with frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S3, December 2025.Abstract Background Functional impairment (FI) in activities of daily living (ADL) is a critical criterion for diagnosing dementia that could be categorized into its three dimensions: basic (BADL), instrumental (IADL) and advanced activities (aADL). While FI has been well studied in Alzheimer's disease (AD), this characterization has been underexplored

The Role of Allostatic Load in Cognitive Impairment and Dementia in Latin America Population [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S2, December 2025.Abstract Background Latin America (LA) experiences disparities driven by social determinants of health and low socioeconomic status, which increase the risk of dementia. These adverse factors may contribute to dementia through allostasis, the body's adaptive response to stressors.

Biological embedding of educational disparities in aging and neurodegeneration across global settings [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S6, December 2025.Abstract Background While education is crucial for brain health, evidence mainly relies on individual measures of years of education (YoE), neglecting educational quality (EQ). Whether YoE and EQ have complementary impacts on aging and dementia is unknown. Methods We assessed the impact of EQ and YoE on brain health in 7,533 subjects from 20 countries,

A machine learning approach for a multidimensional analysis of functional phenotype allows for a better measurement of dementia and its severity [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S3, December 2025.Abstract Background Functional impairment (FI) is a key component in diagnosing and monitoring the severity of neurodegenerative dementia (ND). It manifests in several dimensions, such as everyday cognition, mobility, social functioning, and activities of daily living (ADLs).

Mapping the neurovascular landscape in aging and dementia: cerebral small vessel disease markers in a multicenter Latin American cohort [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a key contributor to cognitive impairment and dementia, yet few studies have compared CSVD across dementia variants, particularly in underrepresented populations. METHODS In a multicenter cross‐sectional study, we analyzed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of CSVD, including white ...

Depressive Syndrome as a Mediator Between Chronic Pain and Alzheimer's Disease in Latin American Populations [PDF]
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S3, December 2025.Abstract Background Chronic pain (CP) and depression frequently co‐occur in the elderly, severely impacting individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Their overlapping neurobiological pathways exacerbate each other, accelerating functional decline and worsening cognitive deficits. Untreated CP and depression may even contribute to dementia progression,
