Background: Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD) is a prevalent condition impacting 11.7% of older adults, which increases the risk for mild cognitive impairment and dementia. The transition to SCD and dementia is often accompanied by an increase in affective symptoms (i.

Typically, shorter ISIs result in reduced N1 amplitudes, suggesting a decreased neural response with high stimulus presentation rates. However, an exception known as N1 facilitation occurs with very brief ISIs (∼150-500 ms), where the N1 amplitude increases.

However, previous studies demonstrating diminished perceptual modulation via attention are complicated by simultaneously impaired perceptual responses. The present study examined the early auditory gamma-band response (EAGBR), a marker of early cortical processing that appears preserved in first-episode psychosis (FEP), and its modulation by attention in a longitudinal FEP sample.

- A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted to understand vaccine preferences for COVID-19 across Canada, Germany, the UK, and the US, focusing on attributes valued by different population subgroups.
- Participants aged 18 and older were surveyed, excluding those who self-identified as antivaccinationists, and assessed various vaccine profiles based on effectiveness, side effect risks, and options for co-administering vaccines.
- The study employed a conditional logit model to analyze preferences, revealing insights into how different characteristics of vaccines influence decision-making regarding immunization among various demographic groups.
Background: Vascular health is increasingly recognized for its roles in the pathogenesis and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The objective of this study was to investigate effects of exercise training, dose, and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on neurotrophic factors in community-dwelling, older adults with mild-to-moderate AD dementia.
Methods: This was a pilot blood ancillary study of the FIT-AD trial.
