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
… is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by impairments in cognition coupled with a predictive pattern of neural atrophy beyond changes associated with healthy aging. Divergence from normative aging occurs years before clinical diagnosis of AD, a prodromal period classified as amnestic mild …

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
… between normal aging and progressive neurocognitive conditions (Celsis, 2000; Sherwin, 2000). As targeted therapeutic interventions and emerging therapies for AD are much more likely to be effective in the earlier stages of the disease (Loewenstein, Curiel, Duara & Buschke, 2017), early …

Development and Validation of the Alzheimer’s Questionnaire
… individuals with AD and its prodrome, amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The AQ’s accuracy in identifying MCI was explored further in an additional study which sought to determine which items on the AQ were best predicted the presence of MCI. Four items were strongly associated …

ROLE OF GENOMIC COPY NUMBER VARIATION IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT
… form of dementia defined by loss in memory and cognitive abilities severe enough to interfere significantly with daily life activities. Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a clinical condition in which an individual has memory deficits not normal for the individual's age, but not severe …

Electrophysiological Markers of Sensory Plasticity and Connectomics in Ageing and Mild Cognitive Impairment
… latent neuropathology in those classified with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI); an 'at risk' group for Alzheimer's disease. The studies of this thesis employ two independently developed EEG paradigms designed to index fundamentally distinct models of perceptual learning, namely the …

Arbitrary associative memory: a candidate cognitive endophenotype for probable Alzheimer's disease
… factor for probable AD. The investigation of cognitive endophenotypes for probable AD, or cognitive markers of liability to the condition that are theoretically closer to its genetic mechanisms than its clinical phenotype, might assist in the identification of susceptibility genes for AD. This …
