"How and when environmental agents and dietary factors affect the course of Alzheimer's disease: the ""LEARn"" model (latent early-life associated regulation) may explain the triggering of AD."
<b>Background</b>: High blood levels of the chemokine eotaxin-1 (CCL11) have recently been associated with aging and dementia, as well as impaired memory and learning in humans.
<b>Conclusions:</b> Linguistic features of spontaneous speech transcribed and analyzed by NLP techniques show significant differences between controls and pathological states (not only eD but also MCI) and seems to be a promising approach for the identification of preclinical stages of dementia.
<b>Methods:</b> Seven patients with Kii ALS/PDC (3 males and 4 females, average age 70.7 years, 3 with ALS, 2 with ALS with dementia, and 2 with PDC) were analyzed in this study.
<b>Methods:</b> Seven patients with Kii ALS/PDC (3 males and 4 females, average age 70.7 years, 3 with ALS, 2 with ALS with dementia, and 2 with PDC) were analyzed in this study.
<b>Methods:</b> We enrolled 107 participants (45 amyloid-β-negative cognitively unimpaired [CU-], 7 amyloid-β-positive cognitively unimpaired [CU+], 31 with prodromal AD [mild cognitive impairment; MCI+], and 24 with AD dementia [DEM+]) who completed 2 baseline PET scans (<sup>18</sup>F-flortaucipir and <sup>18</sup>F-florbetaben), MRI, and neuropsychologic tests.
<b>Objective</b>: In the present study, we test the robustness of the association between IGF-I receptor stimulating activity and dementia by extending the follow-up period to 16 years and investigate possible effect modification by apolipoprotein E (ApoE).
<b>Objectives:</b> To explore the acceptability of telepresence robots in dementia care from the perspectives of people with dementia, family carers, and health professionals/trainees, and investigate the utility of a social presence assessment tool, the Modified-Temple Presence Inventory (Modified-TPI), for people with dementia.
148 patients > 65 years who began ET with either tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitor (AI) completed the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23 and the Interview for Deterioration in Daily Living Activities in Dementia (IDDD) questionnaires three times over 3 years of ET.
150 individuals with ET (109 Normal Cognition (ET-NC group), and 30 with MCI and 11 dementia (ET-CI group)) completed self-ratings and objective assessments of memory, language, and executive functioning.
5' splice site mutations in tau associated with the inherited dementiaFTDP-17 affect a stem-loop structure that regulates alternative splicing of exon 10.
566 pathologically-confirmed AD cases who were followed prospectively with antemortem dementia diagnoses (312 ApoE ϵ4 carriers and 254 ApoE ϵ4 non-carriers) were compared on the frequencies of neuropathological frequency scores (none, sparse, moderate, frequent) among several different brain regions (frontal, temporal, parietal, hippocampal, and entorhinal) using the CERAD scoring system.
Dementia in one or more first-degree family members was found in 43% of patients and mutation analysis of the tau gene showed mutations in 34 patients (19 P301L, five L315R, four G272V, four R406W, one Delta K280 and one S320F), all with a positive family history for dementia (14% of the total population, 32% of patients with a positive family history).
