Brain and cognitive correlates of social status across race/ethnicity and sex/gender. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Subjective social status (SSS) in the United States relates to cognition. Few studies assess SSS in one's community, examine brain correlates, or consider associations across the intersection of sex/gender and race/ethnicity. METHODS A total of 867 participants from the Washington Heights‐Inwood Columbia Aging Project completed ...

Cholinergic basal forebrain atrophy in Parkinson's disease with freezing of gait. [PDF]
Abstract Background Mounting research support that cholinergic dysfunction plays a prominent role in freezing of gait (FOG), which commonly occurs in Parkinson's disease (PD). Basal forebrain (BF), especially the cholinergic nuclei 4 (Ch4), provides the primary source of the brain cholinergic input.

Microstructural Characterization of Short Association Fibers Related to Long-Range White Matter Tracts in Normative Development. [PDF]
This study investigates superficial white matter using advanced quantitative diffusion tractography. This paper addresses three key objectives: (1) mapping short association fibers in relation to long‐range white matter tracts, (2) characterizing typical neurodevelopmental changes, and (3) investigating the relationship between microstructural changes ...

Tau mediates the impact of amyloid and vascular disease burden on the trajectory of clinical symptoms. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Amyloid (A) and vascular (V) pathologies often co‐occur and progress over decades. We leveraged chronicity, defined as the years above a biomarker‐positivity threshold, to examine how the timing of A and V relates to cognitive decline.

Shape Alterations of Subcortical Nuclei Correlate With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Progression. [PDF]
Extensive shape alterations of subcortical nuclei noted in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with fast progression implicated subcortical shape being a potential neuroimaging biomarker for ALS progression, facilitating early diagnosis and prompt management of patients with ALS.

Neuroimaging correlates and biomarker performance of a fully automated plasma p-tau217/Aβ42 ratio assay in a clinical cohort with Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Blood‐based biomarkers offer scalable, non‐invasive tools for Alzheimer's disease (AD) detection. We investigated the performance of plasma biomarkers associated with AD on the automated Beckman Coulter Access DxI 9000 analyzer. METHODS This cross‐sectional study included 262 individuals from across the AD continuum.

Spatiotemporal profile of atrophy in the first year following moderate‐severe traumatic brain injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers progressive neurodegeneration resulting in brain atrophy that continues months‐to‐years following injury. Our findings demonstrate msTBI results in characteristic progressive neurodegeneration patterns that are divergent across regions and scale with the severity of injury.

Improving Accuracy of Brainstem MRI Volumetry: Effects of Age and Sex, and Normalization Strategies
Background: Brainstem-mediated functions are impaired in neurodegenerative diseases and aging. Atrophy can be visualized by MRI. This study investigates extrinsic sources of brainstem volume variability, intrinsic sources of anatomical variability, and ...

Distinct patterns of neurodegeneration after TBI and in Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a dementia risk factor, with Alzheimer's disease (AD) more common following injury. Patterns of neurodegeneration produced by TBI can be compared to AD and aging using volumetric MRI. Methods A total of 55 patients after moderate to severe TBI (median age 40), 45 with AD (median age 69), and 61 ...
