Article Synopsis
- Response activation and inhibition, key aspects of executive control, are impaired in individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD), as confirmed by a study using magnetoencephalography.
- The research involved 18 participants with PD and 18 control participants performing a task that required either initiating movements or inhibiting cued movements, revealing similar reaction times across both groups.
- Significant abnormalities in oscillatory brain activity—particularly in the beta and alpha frequency bands—were found in various cortical areas (like motor cortex and prefrontal cortex), indicating delayed activation and suggestive compensatory mechanisms in those with PD.
We examined knowledge of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), resources, and research opportunities among older African American (AA) and Caucasian caregivers. A mixed methods design integrated qualitative (focus group) and quantitative (survey) data from Northwest Louisiana. Eight focus groups (59 adults, 92% female, 78% AA, 25% rural) revealed limited knowledge.
