Clinical Significance of Pattern of Memory Deficits in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment
Background & OBJECTIVES: Although the recent progress in acute ischemic stroke treatment, carotid terminus occlusion (CTO) is quite demanding to recanalize, and even if it is achieved, the morbidity and mortality rates remain high. In this study, we aimed to discover a prognostic marker for acute …

Heading Disorientation in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment is Correlated with Hypometabolism in the Posterior Cingulate Cortex
… B of the CPT in FDG-PET studies of patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). METHODS: A total of 15 aMCI patients were enrolled into the study. Patients underwent standardized neuropsychological tests and part A and part B of the CPT. The CPT scores and K-MMSE scores of 29 …

Inhibitory Control Changes in Healthy Aging, Alzheimer’s Disease and Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment: An FMRI Study of the Stroop Task
… of AD, a prodromal period classified as amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). Inhibitory control has been investigated across healthy aging, AD and aMCI through utilization of the Stroop task. Inhibition is required to suppress the automatic reading response in order to identify the …

Grey matter morphological changes in late life using magnetic resonance imaging technique
… studies on GM changes in MCI have focused on the amnestic MCI subtype. The third research topic aims to examine the grey matter (GM) atrophy patterns of MCI subtypes in comparison with a cognitively healthy group. The neuroanatomical hallmark of amnestic MCI, medial temporal lobe atrophy, is …

Phonemic and semantic fluency among individuals diagnosed with MCI, AD, and other dementias
… among individuals with Alzheimer’s dementia and amnestic MCI, which is the type of MCI that has an increased risk of Alzheimer’s dementia. This study was archival and based on reviewing existing data from the Memory Clinic at Landakot at the Landspitali – The National University Hospital of …

Medial Temporal Lobe Does Not Tell The Whole Story: Episodic Memory In ‘atypical’ Variants Of Alzheimer’s Disease
… prominent deficit in the early stage of clinical amnestic AD, and reflected by the shrinkage of structures in medial temporal lobe (MTL), including the hippocampus. According to Braak staging, tangles begin in the transentorhinal cortex of the MTL, which then spreads to hippocampal subfields, and …

Understanding Cognitive Variability in Alzheimer’s Disease
… & 3 uncovered broad psychometric variance within amnestic measurement of impairment due to AD. This was done in two different populations across two different constructs of amnestic measurement, story recall and verbal list learning. These tests are frequently used interchangeably. These two …

Transdiagnostic approach to language and cognition in the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia and Alzheimer’s disease
… found in other dementias like typical, amnestic AD. Progressive language deterioration negatively affects individuals’ quality of life, carer burden, and outcome. Enabling early and accurate diagnosis is a priority for inclusion in clinical trials and targeted speech-language …

Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A Mechanistic Link in the Progression from Normal Aging to Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease
… mitochondrial bioenergetics are present in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), a transitional stage between normal aging and AD. A negative correlation between synaptic mitochondrial function and intra-synaptic amyloid beta 42 (Aβ42) levels was also observed. Additionally, by …

A Novel Cognitive Stress Test for the Detection of Early Alzheimer’s Disease in African Americans
… both cognitively normal and those with amnestic-mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), on a novel cognitive stress test, the Loewenstein-Acevedo Scale of Semantic Interference and Learning (LASSI-L) and found that those with aMCI exhibit more impairment in their initial learning and storage …

Social perception and neuropsychological deficits in mild cognitive impairment
… likely to progress to Alzheimer’s disease, i.e., amnestic MCI. The present study aimed to assess emotion recognition and complex social perception tasks using an ecologically valid tool - The Awareness of Social Inference Test (TASIT) - in all subtypes of MCI. The overall aims were to examine …

Role of psychometric tools in the diagnosis and pharmacological treatment of Major Depression and Alzheimer s disease
… on biological and neuropsychological markers in amnestic MCI patients who are at high risk to develop AD. A major conclusion of this study was that it is possible to identify a combination of neuropsychological tools (MMSE, MoCA, Rey s Test, FAB) and validated biological markers essential for an …
