Cognitive measures predict pathologic Alzheimer disease.
BACKGROUND Neuropsychologic testing is often used to infer neuropathologic processes, but clinicopathologic correlations for individual cognitive measures are based on a small number of published studies. OBJECTIVE To examine the usefulness of the age- and education-adjusted Mayo Cognitive Factor Scales (MCFS) obtained at participants' initial assessments for predicting the presence or absenc...
متن کاملLong-term cortisol measures predict Alzheimer disease risk.
OBJECTIVE To examine whether long-term measures of cortisol predict Alzheimer disease (AD) risk. METHOD We used a prospective longitudinal design to examine whether cortisol dysregulation was related to AD risk. Participants were from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA) and submitted multiple 24-hour urine samples over an average interval of 10.56 years. Urinary free cortisol (UF...
متن کاملTemporoparietal MR imaging measures of atrophy in subjects with mild cognitive impairment that predict subsequent diagnosis of Alzheimer disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) represents a transitional state between normal aging and Alzheimer disease (AD). Our goal was to determine if specific temporoparietal regions can predict the time to progress from MCI to AD. MATERIALS AND METHODS MR images from 129 individuals with MCI were analyzed to identify the volume of 14 neocortical and 2 non-neocortical brain reg...
متن کاملPathologic and nicotinic receptor binding differences between mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer disease, and normal aging.
BACKGROUND Neurochemical and pathologic studies show that mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is frequently a transitional state between normal aging and Alzheimer disease (AD). Neuropathologic sample sizes have been limited because relatively few individuals with MCI die before dementia develops. Decreased neocortical nicotinic receptor binding is characteristic of AD but has not been investigated...
