Methods: A recursive partitioning tree model was developed using ARMADA data and the NIH Toolbox, a multidimensional health assessment tool. It incorporated demographic and clinical assessment variables to predict NC, MCI, and AD. Model performance was evaluated using AUC, precision, recall, and F1 score. Robustness was tested through 5-fold cross-validation, sensitivity, scenario, and subgroup analyses. Results: The model achieved macro-AUC and micro-AUC scores of 0.92 and 0.91 (training) and 0.89 and 0.86 (testing). Key predictors included the Picture Sequence Memory Test and List Sorting Working Memory Test. Cross-validation yielded 70.22% accuracy and a Kappa of 0.52. Conclusion: Machine learning effectively uses a small set of assessments to distinguish NC, MCI, and AD, offering a valuable tool to support clinical decision-making. Future research should validate this model across diverse populations.","PeriodicalId":93865,"journal":{"name":"American journal of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias","volume":"40 ","pages":"15333175251339730"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12056332/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144045933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A deep learning convolutional neural network of VB-Nets was used to automatically identify and segment whole-brain subregions and WMH. The PyRadiomics package in Python was used to automatically extract radiomic features from the WMH and bilateral hippocampi. Delong tests revealed that the random forest model based on combined features had the best performance for the detection of cognitive impairment in WMH patients, with an AUC of 0.900 in the external validation set.

The GWRF outperformed conventional models with an out-of-bag R2 of 74.8% in predicting AD dementia prevalence and the lowest error (MAE = 0.34, RMSE = 0.45). Key findings showed that mobile homes were the most influential factor in 19.9% of U.S. counties, followed by NDVI (17.4%), physical inactivity (12.9%), households with no vehicle (11.3%), and particulate matter (10.4%), while other primary factors affecting <10% of U.S. counties.

Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), a therapeutic modulator of acetylcholine (ACh) release, its cognitive effects remain underexplored. We investigated the effect of BoNT on spatial learning, memory, microglia and hippocampal neurogenesis in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model of PD. Behavioral tests, including the open field, novel object recognition, and Morris water maze, demonstrated significant improvements in locomotion, learning, and memory with BoNT treatment. BoNT increased the number of doublecortin (DCX)-positive immature neurons and percentage of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)/neuronal nuclei (NeuN) double-positive cells, while the reduced number of microglia was evident in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). Additionally, histological analyses revealed BoNT-mediated protection of pyramidal neurons in hippocampal cornu ammonis (CA)-1 and CA3 regions. These findings suggest that BoNT mitigates memory deficits by promoting neurogenesis in experimental PD.","PeriodicalId":93865,"journal":{"name":"American journal of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias","volume":"40 ","pages":"15333175251346292"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12126647/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144188625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This relationship remained significant after controlling for aging, affluence, Ibs, and urbanization. Multiple linear regression identified birth rate as a significant predictor of dementia incidence, and as the strongest predictor. Affluence and urbanization were not significant predictors. The correlation was stronger in developing countries.Conclusions: Lower birth rate is an independent risk factor for dementia, particularly in developed countries.
