Early intervention for mild cognitive impairment: a randomised controlled trial
Background: Positive effects are reported for memory training for healthy older adults, and yet there is limited information about the benefit of cognitive intervention for older adults with increasing memory difficulties-mild cognitive impairment.; Objective: To investigate the usefulness of an early cognitive intervention for the memory difficulties experienced by people with amnestic mild cognitive impairment.; […]

Effects of gender on response to treatment with rivastigmine in mild cognitive impairment: A post hoc statistical modeling approach
Background: Epidemiologic studies have identified several demographic factors, including gender, that may influence the progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer’s disease (AD).; Objective: This analysis aimed to develop a sensitive model for detecting treatment benefits in patients with MCI by controlling for factors that predict progression to AD. The study used this statistical […]

Donepezil treatment of patients with MCI: a 48-week randomized, placebo-controlled trial
Background: Treatment of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) with cholinesterase inhibitors may improve symptoms.; Methods: In this multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, subjects with MCI entered a 3-week placebo run-in period followed by 48 weeks of double-blind donepezil (5 mg/day for 6 weeks, then 10 mg/day for 42 weeks) or placebo treatment. Primary efficacy variables included change […]

Computer-based cognitive training for mild cognitive impairment: results from a pilot randomized, controlled trial
We performed a pilot randomized, controlled trial of intensive, computer-based cognitive training in 47 subjects with mild cognitive impairment. The intervention group performed exercises specifically designed to improve auditory processing speed and accuracy for 100 min/d, 5 d/wk for 6 weeks; the control group performed more passive computer activities (reading, listening, visuospatial game) for similar […]

Cognitive decline from estimated premorbid status predicts neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease
This study investigated the relationship between premorbid and current cognitive function with respect to the clinical features of patients with various types of neurodegeneration in the form of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), as compared with a healthy control group (C). Clinical features (MMSE, cognitive and depressive symptoms), […]

A randomized double-blind trial of the effects of hormone therapy on delayed verbal recall in older women
We examined whether estradiol and norethindrone hormone therapy (HT) prevented decline in delayed verbal recall in older women with normal to mildly impaired memory functioning. This was a 2-year, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 142 women aged 61-87, randomly assigned to receive 1 mg 17-beta estradiol daily and 0.35 mg norethindrone 3 days/week or daily […]

Safety and tolerability of donepezil in mild cognitive impairment: open-label extension study
Following a 48-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of donepezil in 821 patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), safety and tolerability of donepezil (10 mg) were further evaluated in a 28-week extension study. Of 499 participants who completed the double-blind phase, 145 enrolled in the open-label study. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded throughout. Overall, 57.4% […]

The psychosocial impacts of multimedia biographies on persons with cognitive impairments
Purpose: The purpose of this feasibility pilot project was to observe Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients’ responses to personalized multimedia biographies (MBs). We developed a procedure for using digital video technology to construct DVD-based MBs of persons with AD or MCI, documented their responses to observing their MBs, and evaluated the […]

The PREVENT research programme—A novel research programme to identify and manage midlife risk for dementia: The conceptual framework
It is clear that the neurodegenerative disease processes which cause dementias are initiated many years before the onset of symptoms. In people with mild cognitive impairment there is already good evidence available to suggest that many of the key pathologies are well established. The PREVENT research programme seeks to understand the origin point and sequence […]

Prevention of depression and sleep disturbances in elderly with memory-problems by activation of the biological clock with light–a randomized clinical trial
Background: Depression frequently occurs in the elderly and in patients suffering from dementia. Its cause is largely unknown, but several studies point to a possible contribution of circadian rhythm disturbances. Post-mortem studies on aging, dementia and depression show impaired functioning of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) which is thought to be involved in the increased prevalence […]
