This is a multi-center longitudinal study that consists of five cohorts: cognitive normal aging (CN), Subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). The goals of this study are as follow: 1.To establish longitudinal cohort study database containing comprehensive epidemiological data, neuropsychological …
Our study intends to offer 'real world' evidence of a viable, sustainable means to mobilize primary care via a comprehensive strategy for detecting cognitive impairment and dementias, advancing next steps for referral, and participating in the care planning and management of affected patients and caregivers. We will conduct a clinic-randomized, …
This is a prospective cohort study with the main purpose of predicting progression neurocognitive disorders in Thai population. The main predictor variables to be evaluated are plasma phosphorylated tau (p-tau) level and cognitive test scores, which will be combined using statistical/computational modeling. Additionally, it seeks to evaluate biomarkers for diagnosing …
The goal of this observational study is to investigate neuroimage and biomarkers in the Alzheimer's continuum in Chinese population. We aimed to: To reveal the progress of AD by multiple neuroimage and biomarkers; To reveal the longitudinal change of biomarkers and cognition of AD in Chinese population; To investigate the …
Today, the Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis is founded not only on clinical criteria but also on complementary examinations to confirm a physiopathological process of AD. In complex cases, lumbar punction could be necessary in order to measure Aβ peptides and Total and phosphorylated Tau but new biomarkers could be useful. …
The investigators will study performance on computerized cognitive tasks in healthy participants of different ages to gather normative data for newly developed computerized cognitive tests. These tests are designed to permit the early detection of individuals at risk of age-related cognitive decline.
Efforts to find treatments for AD have yielded only modest benefits, likely because longstanding AD pathological processes induce irreversible neurological compromise. These processes begin years before the onset of clinical symptoms. This possibility has been incorporated into a model describing stages of AD development, articulated by the NIA/Alzheimer's Association preclinical …
This is a research study that aims to examine whether Veterans with mild Traumatic Brain Injuries are at risk for dementia by studying their memory, brain wave activity, brain structure and proteins that can be elevated after brain injury and in dementia.
Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) are common and debilitating conditions. Financial hardship, a multidimensional construct of financial strain, financial stress and asset depletion, is common in AD/ADRD due to exorbitant out-of-pocket spending such as for long-term care, lower work productivity and income for their caregivers that can last for …
The goal of this prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study is to evaluate the screening performance of blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a real-world community screening setting, and to establish the population baseline levels and reference intervals of these biomarkers in Chinese older adults. The main questions it aims …
