Asymmetry of the Structural Brain Connectome in Healthy Older Adults
BACKGROUND It is now possible to map neural connections in vivo across the whole brain (i.e., the brain connectome). This is a promising development in neuroscience since many health and disease processes are believed to arise from the architecture of neural networks. OBJECTIVE To describe the normal range of hemispheric asymmetry in structural connectivity in healthy older adults. MATERIAL...
متن کاملAssessing pain in cognitively impaired older adults.
BACKGROUND Accurate assessments of pain help healthcare professionals to identify its source and manage it appropriately. Pain in cognitively impaired older adults is difficult to assess and this can result in poor management and outcomes. In response to the vulnerability of this patient group, researchers have produced a variety of tools for pain assessment in cognitively impaired older adults...
متن کاملAmyloid deposition is linked to aberrant entorhinal activity among cognitively normal older adults.
Normal aging is often difficult to distinguish from the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease. Years before clinical memory deficits manifest, amyloid-β deposits in the cortex in many older individuals. Neuroimaging studies indicate that a set of densely connected neocortical regions, referred to as the default network, is especially vulnerable to amyloid-β deposition. Yet, the impact of amylo...
متن کاملPoor sleep is associated with CSF biomarkers of amyloid pathology in cognitively normal adults.
OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between sleep quality and CSF markers of Alzheimer disease (AD) pathology in late midlife. METHODS We investigated the relationship between sleep quality and CSF AD biomarkers in a cohort enriched for parental history of sporadic AD, the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer's Prevention. A total of 101 participants (mean age 62.9 ± 6.2 years, 65.3% female) ...
متن کاملElectrophysiological entropy in younger adults, older controls and older cognitively declined adults.
The current study examined electrophysiological entropy in younger adults, older adults, and older cognitively declined adults across four experimental conditions - eyes closed, eyes open, and during both encoding and recognition of words in a memory task. We hypothesised reduced entropy in older declined adults relative to both older controls and younger adults, with the largest group differen...
