Exploring the Predicting Biomarkers From Mild Cognitive Impairment to Dementia (EBMID)
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) represents a transitional stage between healthy aging and dementia, and affects more than 15% of the population over the age of 60 in China. About 15% patients with MCI could progress into dementia after two years and about one-third develop into dementia within five years, which …
Modelling Tau Distribution From DTI With Generative Adversarial Network for Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis
The most significant impact of this project is to propose for the first time a novel generative adversarial network (GAN), as one kind of deep learning architecture, to automatically generate synthetic PET images reflecting tau deposition, from brain DTI images. If successful, this framework will become the most state-of-the-art approach …
Digital Evaluations and Technologies Enabling Clinical Translation for AD
The DETECT-AD study (stands for "Digital Evaluations and Technologies Enabling Clinical Translation for Alzheimer's Disease") is a new study designed to improve clinical trials for early Alzheimer's disease. DETECT-AD uses specialized home-based digital devices (electronic scale, electronic pill box, under-the-mattress sleep sensor, motion activity sensors, wrist watch activity tracker, driving …
Investigations of Dementia in Parkinson Disease
The purpose of this study is to use a brain imaging method called Pittsburgh B (PIB) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Vesicular Cholinergic Transport (VAT) PET to determine dementia subtypes in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). The ultimate goal of this project is to be able to identify individuals with …
Amyloid PET in Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Early Dementia
The National Institute on Aging together with the Alzheimer's Association (NIA-AA) recently proposed the ATN classification which is based upon the pathological processes present in Alzheimer's disease (amyloid, tau and neurodegeneration). The amyloid and tau status can be defined using cerebrospinal fluid analysis but also non-invasively using an amyloid or …
ANeED Joint Effort 21: eHealth and a PPI Program in Dementia With Lewybodies (DLB)
The goal of the study is to develop predictive algorithms and digital biomarkers to capture disease fluctuations in (prodromal) dementia with lewybodies (DLB) patients and to improve treatment, diagnosis and prognosis of the study drug Ambroxol, used in the ANeED study. This project is an additional study to the ANeED …
Longitudinal Early-onset Alzheimer's Disease Study Protocol
The Longitudinal Early-onset Alzheimer's Disease Study (LEADS) is a non-randomized, natural history, non-treatment study designed to look at disease progression in individuals with early onset cognitive impairment. Clinical, cognitive, imaging, biomarker, and genetic characteristics will be assessed across three cohorts: (1) early onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD) participants, (2) early onset …
Neuroimaging in Healthy Aging and Senile Dementia (HASD_IND)
To identify factors that signal the transition from asymptomatic (preclinical) to symptomatic Alzheimer disease (AD).
Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Study
The purpose of the Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Study is to identify the genes that are responsible for causing Alzheimer's Disease (AD). One of the ways in which the risk factor genes for late onset AD can be investigated is by identifying and collecting genetic material from families with multiple members …
The Diagnostic Cut-off Value of Core Biomarkers of Alzheimer's Disease
The participant in this study includes Alzheimer's disease (AD including familial AD and sporadic AD) patients, amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) patients, non-AD dementia patients and cognitively normal control. The purpose of this study is to establish the best cut-off value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood β-amyloid (Aβ) 42/40, …
