Brain morphometry in older adults with and without dementia using extremely rapid structural scans

T1-weighted structural MRI is widely used to measure brain morphometry (e.g., cortical thickness and subcortical volumes). Accelerated scans as fast as one minute or less are now available but it is unclear if they are adequate for quantitative morphometry ...

An integrative multi-omics approach reveals new central nervous system pathway alterations in Alzheimer's disease

Mojgan Masoodi, Christopher Clark

Background Multiple pathophysiological processes have been described in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Their inter-individual variations, complex interrelations, and relevance for clinical manifestation and disease progression remain poorly understood. We hypot ...

Neural circuits of idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: A perspective review of brain connectivity and symptoms meta-analysis

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Alessandra Griffa

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a prevalent reversible neurological disorder characterized by impaired locomotion, cognition and urinary control with ventriculomegaly. Symptoms can be relieved with cerebrospinal fluid drainage, which mak ...

Enhancing daily light exposure increases the antibody response to influenza vaccination in patients with dementia

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch

Enhancing lighting conditions in institutions for individuals with dementia improves their sleep, circadian rhythms and well-being. Here, we tested whether a greater long-term daily light exposure supports the immune response to the annual influenza vaccin ...

Enhancing functional abilities and cognitive integration of the lower limb prosthesis

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Lower limb amputation (LLA) destroys the sensory communication between the brain and the external world during standing and walking. Current prostheses do not restore sensory feedback to amputees, who, relying on very limited haptic information from the st ...

Randomized trial on the effects of a combined physical/cognitive training in aged MCI subjects: the Train the Brain study

Silvestro Micera, Giovanni D'Angelo, Martina Coscia, Marco Mainardi

Age-related cognitive impairment and dementia are an increasing societal burden. Epidemiological studies indicate that lifestyle factors, e.g. physical, cognitive and social activities, correlate with reduced dementia risk; moreover, positive effects on co ...

Metabolic Alterations Associated to Brain Dysfunction in Diabetes

João Miguel das Neves Duarte

From epidemiological studies it is known that diabetes patients display increased risk of developing dementia. Moreover, cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are also accompanied by impaired glucose homeostasis and insulin signalling. Although ...

The many faces of α-synuclein: from structure and toxicity to therapeutic target

Hilal Lashuel, Abid Oueslati

Disorders characterized by α-synuclein (α-syn) accumulation, Lewy body formation and parkinsonism (and in some cases dementia) are collectively known as Lewy body diseases. The molecular mechanism (or mechanisms) through which α-syn abnormally accumulates ...
