The Boston Cognitive Assessment (BoCA) is a self-administered online test intended for longitudinal cognitive monitoring. BoCA uses random not-repeating tasks to minimize learning effects. BoCA was developed to evaluate the effects of treatment in longitudinal clinical trials and available gratis to individuals and professionals.
The overall aim of the study is to improve the diagnostic accuracy of AD and cognitive impairment in primary care settings to ensure better care and treatment as well as facilitate correct referrals to specialized memory clinics. The investigators will strive to recruit diverse and representative populations of patients with …
The diagnosis of diseases causing memory difficulties or dementia is often challenging. Without the use of advanced methods such as cerebrospinal fluid tests, approximately 25-30% do not receive a correct diagnosis today. However, the investigators have recently developed new blood biomarkers with high diagnostic accuracy, and the investigators now want …
OCt.IN.N is a national, monocentric, prospective, observational cohort study evaluating the utility and applicability of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in the diagnostic workup and longitudinal monitoring of neurological diseases. 840 patients with Central Nervous System neurological diseases (Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, migraine/headache) and 210 age-matched healthy controls will …
Given the expansion of indications for genetic testing and our understanding of conditions for which the results change medical management, it is imperative to consider novel ways to deliver care beyond the traditional genetic counseling visit, which are both amenable to large-scale implementation and sustainable. The investigators propose an entirely …
Cognitive neurodegenerative diseases are a major public health issue. At present, the diagnosis of certainty is still based on anatomopathological analyses. Even if the diagnostic tools available to clinicians have made it possible to improve probabilistic diagnosis during the patient's lifetime, there are still too many diagnostic errors and sub-diagnostic …
This study aims to investigate whether biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease can be found in tearfluid, as well as dried bloodspots in patients with Alzheimer's disease, other dementia diagnoses compared to controls.
Electrical activity in the brain known as "gamma" brainwaves help connect and process information throughout the brain. These gamma waves are diminished in Alzheimer's disease. New research in Alzheimer's disease mouse models shows that exposure to light flickering at the rate of 40 flashes per second or 40Hz increased gamma …
The goal of this cohort study is to estimate the incidence of AD in the first-degree relatives of patients with AD. The main questions it aims to answer are: cognitive changes of subjects at high risk of AD as ageing; environmental and behavioral factors affecting AD incidence.
This is a longitudinal observational study recruiting individuals between the ages of 50 and 90 with different types of dementia as well as a comparison group without cognitive deficits. Participants are/will be recruited at sites across Canada and will undergo assessments, neuroimaging, and biological sample collection.
