Hyperspectral retinal imaging is a non-invasive imaging modality in which a series of images of the retina are captured using light of different wavelengths. The resulting "hypercube" of data provides a wealth of information about the retinal structure. Our group has developed evidence supporting a role for this technology in …
Around 10% of stroke survivors develop dementia within 3 months after stroke and over 20% more stroke patients have dementia in the subsequent 3 years. Previous studies documented a close relationship between stroke and Alzheimer's disease (AD). There are, however, no reliable biomarkers to detect cognitive dysfunction and dementia among …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose and multiple doses of ALN-APP administered by intrathecal (IT) injection in adult patients with early-onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD). Maximum treatment duration for Part A: single dose. Maximum treatment duration for …
Cognitive decline in dementia is considered irreversible, however episodes of paradoxical lucidity (PL) in severe dementia suggest other mechanisms may be in play. Beyond anecdotal reports of transient PL events occurring in patients predominantly in late-stage dementia and typically lasting anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, little is …
There is growing evidence for the benefits of music for individuals living with dementia but there has been limited research looking specifically at personalised music. Methodologies have not yet been developed to generate and play personalised music playlists quickly and cost effectively. The research team proposes a feasibility study to …
The CIRCAME study is a bicentric study of patients from 2 memory clinics in Paris. The main objective is to identify circadian rhythm components and other individual risk factors (sociodemographic, behavioral, and health related factors) associated with the diagnosis of subtypes (AD, Lewy bodies, vascular, frontotemporal dementia) and stages (cognitively …
The INSPIRE Study, initiated by the Healthy Minds Initiative, is a community-based research project aimed at demonstrating the impact of lifestyle factors on cognitive health and the prevention of dementia. Conducted in collaboration with the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Charles Drew University, UCLA, Stanford University and Crenshaw Christian Center, …
The investigators propose a stepwise screening approach. The first step involves rapid digital pre-screening of cognitive function through three components: the SCD-9 questionnaire to capture subjective cognitive complaints, a digital cognitive assessment to evaluate objective performance, and a predictive model to estimate future dementia risk in cognitively normal individuals. The …
The goal of this mixed method study is to evaluate whether the volunteer-led Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) under the BrainLive Connect programme is effective for improving cognitive function and quality of life of people living with dementia (PLwD). The main question it aims to answer are: • Do PLwD receiving …
In Germany, approximately 1.8 million individuals are living with dementia, representing a considerable share of those requiring long-term care. Many people with dementia (PlwD) express the desire to remain in their home environment for as long as possible. However, the progressive cognitive and physical decline associated with the disease renders …
