Saliva samples allowed DNA extraction. A consensus team reviewed clinical data to determine a diagnosis of normal control (NC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or dementia. Exploratory analyses addressed AD risk by measuring subjective cognitive complaints (SCC), depression, and vascular risk factors (VRFs).Results: Twenty-five participants completed the study (mean age=73.8 y). Eighty percent chose to communicate in Vietnamese. Referrals came primarily from word of mouth within Vietnamese communities. Diagnoses included 18 NC, 3 MCI, and 4 dementia. Participants reporting SCC acknowledged more depressive symptoms and had greater objective cognitive difficulty than those without SCC. Eighty-eight percent of participants reported at least 1 VRF.Discussion: This pilot study supports the feasibility of conducting community-based research in older Vietnamese Americans.

This study aimed to determine whether mild functional impairment (MFI) in CN older adults could predict incident dementia over 6 years, in addition to assessing its association with cognitive performance.Design: A longitudinal study with a 6-year follow-up.Participants: A cohort of 296 community-dwelling CN older adults.Measurements: MFI was defined by cutoffs for impairment on an objective performance-based and/or subjective questionnaire-based functional assessment. Cox regression analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between MFI and risk of incident dementia and cognitive performances over 6 years. Linear regression analysis examined the association between MFI and baseline cognitive performance.Results: There were no significant longitudinal associations between MFI and incident dementia or changes in cognitive performance over 6 years. Defining MFI using both performance-based and informant-reported assessments was predictive of dementia. Cross-sectional analyses demonstrated significant associations between MFI and poorer baseline global cognition and performance in attention, visuospatial ability, and executive functioning.Conclusions: CN older adults with MFI were not at an increased risk of developing dementia over 6 years.

Cognitive assessment was evaluated by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and cognitive improvement was defined as MMSE scores ≥27 or 4-score elevation at 3-month follow-up after stroke. The AD7c-NTP level was 0.68±0.40 ng/mL in the 135 patients with cognitive improvement, while the AD7c-NTP level was 1.49±0.99 ng/mL in the 89 patients without improvement ( P <0.001).

It is critical to identify participants in this preclinical phase as early as possible since treatment plans may be more effective in this stage. Monitoring for changes in driving behavior, as measured with GPS sensors, has been explored as a low-burden, easy-to-administer method for detecting AD risk. However, driving is a complex, multifaceted process that is likely influenced by other factors, including personality traits, that may change in preclinical AD.Methods: We examine the moderating influence of neuroticism and conscientiousness on longitudinal changes in driving behavior in a sample of 203 clinically normal older adults who are at varying risk of developing AD.Results: Neuroticism moderated rates of change in the frequency of speeding as well as the number of trips taken at night. Conscientiousness moderated rates of change in typical driving space.Conclusions: Personality traits change in early AD and also influence driving behaviors. Studies that seek to utilize naturalistic driving behavior to establish AD risk need to accommodate interpersonal differences, of which personality traits are one of many possible factors. Future studies should explicitly establish how much benefit is provided by including personality traits in predictive models of AD progression.","PeriodicalId":7679,"journal":{"name":"Alzheimer Disease & Associated Disorders","volume":"38 3","pages":"241-248"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11524437/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142034972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our goal was to identify any commonalities between participants who withdrew for the same reasons. Three independent coders rated each response concerning the reasons for withdrawal, and frequency tables were generated to characterize the participants within each category. This study was conducted on the 28 withdrawn cases from a 7-month study investigating the short-term and long-term therapeutic effects of rTMS for Alzheimer disease among 156 participants across 3 sites of the study. Seven reasons for withdrawal were identified, with health and medical changes being the most commonly reported reason (7 participants). Personal issues involving family or caregivers were the next most common (5 participants), and the remaining 5 categories consisted of 3 participants each. Although the limited sample size prevented the use of inferential statistics, our findings highlight the need for more transparent reporting of attrition rates and withdrawal reasons by rTMS researchers.","PeriodicalId":7679,"journal":{"name":"Alzheimer Disease & Associated Disorders","volume":" ","pages":"288-291"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141900628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
