CSF tau and β-amyloid as biomarkers for mild cognitive impairment
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer s disease (AD) is relevant in order to initiate symptomatic treatment with antidementia drugs. This will be of greater significance if the drugs aimed at slowing down the degenerative process (secondary prevention) prove to affect AD pathology and are clinically effective, such as γ-secretase inhibitors. However, there is currently no clinical assessment to differen...
متن کاملImpairment in Proverb Interpretation as an Executive Function Deficit in Patients with Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment and Early Alzheimers Disease
Background/Aims: Proverb interpretation is assumed to reflect executive functions. We hypothesized that proverb interpretation is impaired in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) diagnosed as single-domain impairment by common neuropsychological testing. Methods: We compared performance in a proverb interpretation test in single-domain aMCI patients and patients with early Al...

متن کاملCingulum fiber diffusivity and CSF T-tau in patients with subjective and mild cognitive impairment.
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and CSF biomarkers are useful diagnostic tools to differentiate patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from normal controls, and may help predict conversion to dementia. Total Tau protein (T-tau) and DTI parameters are both markers for axonal damage, thus it is of interest to determine if DTI parameters are associated with elevated CSF T-tau levels in patie...
متن کاملEffect of Aerobic Exercise on HbA1c and Cognitive Function in Prediabetes Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of moderate to high-intensity aerobic exercise on HbA1c (Glycated hemoglobin), FBS (fasting blood sugar) and cognitive function in mild cognitive impairment prediabetes patients. Materials and Methods: Seventeen elderly mild cognitive impairment (age 55-70) men and women were selected and were randomly divided into 2 groups as aerobic (n=1...
