Objective: To evaluate relationships between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based measures of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), measured at baseline and longitudinally, and 1-year cognitive decline using a large convenience sample in a clinical trial design with a relatively mild profile of cardiovascular risk factors.; Design: Convenience sample in a clinical trial design.; Subjects: A total of […]
Transcultural influences in dementia care: observations from a psychosocial intervention study
Burns, Alistair,
Mittelman, Mary,

Winter, Jane,
Page, Sean,
Brodaty, Henry
Background: Various models of intervention for caregivers of patients with dementia have been described. There has been little direct comparison of cultural differences between countries and the effect any differences may exert on the outcome of caregiver interventions.; Aims: The aims of the three-country study (USA, Australia and the UK) were to assess whether caregiver […]
Reduction of aggregated Tau in neuronal processes but not in the cell bodies after Abeta42 immunisation in Alzheimer’s disease

Nicoll, James A. R.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology is characterised by aggregation in the brain of amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide and hyperphosphorylated tau (phospho-tau), although how these proteins interact in disease pathogenesis is unclear. Abeta immunisation results in removal of Abeta from the brain but cognitive decline continues to progress, possibly due to persistent phospho-tau. We quantified phospho-tau and Abeta42 […]
A single ascending dose study of bapineuzumab in patients with Alzheimer disease
Black, Ronald S.,
Sperling, Reisa A.,

Motter, Ruth N.,
Pallay, Allan,
Nichols, Alice,
Grundman, Michael
The safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PKs) of bapineuzumab (AAB-001), a humanized monoclonal antibody to amyloid beta, were evaluated in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer disease in a phase 1, randomized, third-party unblinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose trial. Thirty patients received bapineuzumab infusion of 0.5, 1.5, or 5 mg/kg or placebo (6 active, 2 placebo for 0.5 […]
Validity of the free and cued selective reminding test in predicting dementia: the 3C study
Auriacombe, S.,
Helmer, C.,
Amieva, H.,
Berr, C.,
Dubois, B.,
Dartigues, J. F.
Objective: We assessed the validity of the Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT) in predicting dementia 2 and 5 years after initial evaluation in a population-based cohort over age 65 years participating in the French 3 Cities (3C) study.; Methods: The FCSRT was administered at baseline along with demographics, cognitive and functional scales, and […]
3D comparison of low, intermediate, and advanced hippocampal atrophy in MCI

Decarli, Charles S.
We applied the hippocampal radial atrophy mapping technique to the baseline and follow-up magnetic resonance image data of 169 amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) participants in the imaging arm of the Alzheimer’s Disease Cooperative Study MCI Donepezil/Vitamin E trial. Sixty percent of the subjects with none to mild hippocampal atrophy rated with the visual medial […]
Rosiglitazone and cognitive stability in older individuals with type 2 diabetes and mild cognitive impairment
Abbatecola, Angela M.,

Molinari, Anna M.,
Cioffi, Michele,
Mansi, Luigi,
Rambaldi, Pierfrancesco,
DiCioccio, Luigi,
Cacciapuoti, Federico,
Canonico, Raffaele,
Paolisso, Giuseppe
Objective: Studies have suggested that insulin resistance plays a role in cognitive impairment in individuals with type 2 diabetes. We aimed to determine whether an improvement in insulin resistance could explain cognitive performance variations over 36 weeks in older individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and type 2 diabetes.; Research Design and Methods: A total […]
Metabolic changes associated with second-generation antipsychotic use in Alzheimer’s disease patients: the CATIE-AD study
Zheng, Ling,

Schneider, Lon S.
Objective: The second-generation antipsychotics are associated with metabolic abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia. Elderly patients with Alzheimer’s disease are frequently treated with these antipsychotics, but limited data are available on their metabolic effects.; Method: The authors assessed 186 male and 235 female Alzheimer’s disease outpatients from the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness-Alzheimer’s Disease (CATIE-AD) […]
