this study was conducted to evaluate how neuroimaging procedures (mri, spect) could be used in clinical setting for diagnosis of dementia.forty out of 94 patients suspected of having a diagnosis of dementia, referred to radiology department for consecutive neuroimaging procedures, were selected. patients’ medical records reviewed anda retrospective diagnosis was reached according to dsm-iv for ...
INTRODUCTION Leukoaraiosis (LA) is a term that defines an abnormal appearance of the subcortical white matter of the brain on neuroimaging. This study was done to evaluate the predictive value of LA in terms of mortality, disability and cognitive decline at three months post-stroke and also to identify the risk factors that are independently associated with LA in a stroke population. METHODS ...
INTRODUCTION Genetic variation in the clusterin gene has been associated with Alzheimer Disease (AD), and the clusterin protein is thought to play a mechanistic role. We explored the associations of clusterin plasma levels with incident dementia, AD, and stroke. METHODS Plasma clusterin was assessed in 1532 nondemented participants from the Framingham Study Offspring cohort between 1998 and 2...
I have read the article entitled “Cognitive function and adherence to anticoagulation treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation” by Jankowska-Polańska, et al., with great interest. The investigators reported that cognitive impairment is an independent determinant of compliance with pharmacological therapy in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Lower adherence, beyond the assess...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE One in 3 individuals will experience a stroke, dementia or both. Moreover, twice as many individuals will have cognitive impairment short of dementia as either stroke or dementia. The commonly used stroke scales do not measure cognition, while dementia criteria focus on the late stages of cognitive impairment, and are heavily biased toward the diagnosis of Alzheimer disea...
Despite major improvements in primary prevention and acute treatment over the last decades, stroke is still a devastating disease. At the beginning of the 21st century, the age-standardized incidence of stroke in Europe ranged from 95 to 290/100,000 per year, with one-month case-fatality rates ranging from 13 to 35%. Approximately 1.1 million inhabitants of Europe suffered a stroke each year, a...
Interaction Between Prestroke Cognitive Performance and Incident Stroke in Predicting Risk of Dementia To the Editor: Reitz and colleagues examined whether 2 important dementia risk factors—cognitive performance and incident stroke—have an interactive effect on subsequent dementia risk or have only independent effects.1 They reported finding no interaction between incident stroke and prestroke ...
BACKGROUND Leisure activity participation has been shown to lower risks of cognitive decline in non-stroke populations. However, effects of leisure activities participation upon cognitive functions and risk of dementia after stroke are unclear. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of recent past leisure activities participation upon cognitive functions and risk of incident dement...
Interaction Between Prestroke Cognitive Performance and Incident Stroke in Predicting Risk of Dementia To the Editor: Reitz and colleagues examined whether 2 important dementia risk factors—cognitive performance and incident stroke—have an interactive effect on subsequent dementia risk or have only independent effects.1 They reported finding no interaction between incident stroke and prestroke ...
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a rare inherited adult onset disease characterised most commonly by cerebral ischaemic events and dementia. It is caused by mutations in the Notch3 gene with most clustering in exons 3 and 4. Whether these mutations have any influence on common sporadic ischaemic stroke or dementia cases has ...
