Dependence Clusters in Alzheimer Disease and Medicare Expenditures: A Longitudinal Analysis From the Predictors...
Introduction:
Dependence in Alzheimer disease has been proposed as a holistic, transparent, and meaningful representation of disease severity. Modeling clusters in dependence trajectories can help understand changes in disease course and care cost over...

Computational model reveals how the brain manages short-term memories — ScienceDaily
If you've ever forgotten something mere seconds after it was at the forefront of your mind -- the name of a dish you were about to order at a restaurant, for instance -- then...
Identification of Alzheimer’s disease using a convolutional neural network model based on T1-weighted magnetic...
DatasetsWe used two datasets in this study: one from the ADNI and the other from the SNUBH. From ADNI, we included participants in both ADNI1 and ADNI2 who had 3.0 T T1-weighted images and were...

Divergent Social Functioning in Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer Disease: Reciprocal Networks and...
Behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) disrupts our most human social and emotional functions. Early in the disease, patients show focal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and orbital frontoinsula (FI) degeneration, accentuated in the right hemisphere....
Diagnosis of Rapidly Progressive Dementia in a Referral Center in Argentina
Introduction:
Rapidly progressive dementia (RPD) is a broadly defined clinical syndrome. Our aim was to describe clinical and ancillary study findings in patients with RPD and evaluate their diagnostic performance for the identification of...
Association of Dementia and Vascular Risk Scores With Cortical Thickness and Cognition in Low-risk...
Background:
Increased risk for the future development of Alzheimer disease begins as early as midlife. Algorithm-based scores, such as the Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging and Incidence of Dementia (CAIDE) dementia risk score, and the...

Repurposing non-pharmacological interventions for Alzheimer’s disease through link prediction on biomedical literature
The complete workflow is depicted in Fig. 1. To investigate the association between NPIs and AD, we initially conducted preprocessing and integration of biomedical triples...
Degenerative Dementias and Their Medical Care in the Movies
Compared with other neurologic problems, few films have been dedicated to degenerative dementia. To our knowledge, this is the first systematic review about the...
