The objective of this study was to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of the Phototest for cognitive impairment and dementia and to compare it with that of the MMSE and the Clock Drawing Test (CDT) in an […]

Efficacy of actovegin in the treatment of elderly patients with vascular mild cognitive impairment

Efficacy of actovegin was investigated in the treatment of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) of cerebrovascular genesis. Thirty patients (7 men and 23 women, mean age 71.2 years) received actovegin intramuscularly in dosage 5 ml (200 mg) daily during 4 weeks.

Inhaled sevoflurane may promote progression of amnestic mild cognitive impairment: a prospective, randomized parallel-group study

Background: Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is thought to be a transitional stage between normal aging and the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent studies have suggested that the inhalational anesthetic isoflurane can induce caspase activation and apoptosis, increase aggregates of β-amyloid (Aβ) levels, and enhance Aβ aggregation. The aim of this study was to […]

Possibilities of pharmacological modulation of brain glutamatergic system in the treatment of vascular cognitive impairment

An aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of noojerone (memantine) in patients with cognitive impairment comorbid to brain ischemia, stages II-III. The main group (30 patients, aged 64-86 years) was treated with noojerone in addition to standard therapy according to dosage scheme during 6 months. The control group (15 patients, […]

Activity loss is associated with cognitive decline in age-related macular degeneration

Background/methods: The objective of this study was to determine whether relinquishing cognitive, physical, and social activities is associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We conducted a 3-year longitudinal study of 206 nondemented patients with AMD.; Results: Twenty-three subjects (14.4%) declined cognitively. Age, sex, education, decline in […]

Aerobic exercise improves cognition for older adults with glucose intolerance, a risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease

Impaired glucose regulation is a defining characteristic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) pathology and has been linked to increased risk of cognitive impairment and dementia. Although the benefits of aerobic exercise for physical health are well-documented, exercise effects on cognition have not been examined for older adults with poor glucose regulation associated with prediabetes […]

Effects of aerobic exercise on mild cognitive impairment: a controlled trial

Objectives: To examine the effects of aerobic exercise on cognition and other biomarkers associated with Alzheimer disease pathology for older adults with mild cognitive impairment, and assess the role of sex as a predictor of response.; Design: Six-month, randomized, controlled, clinical trial.; Setting: Veterans Affairs Puget Sound Health Care System clinical research unit.; Participants: Thirty-three […]
