The authors assessed the usefulness of event-related potentials (ERP) and flash visual evoked potentials (FVEP) as prognostic markers in a sample of 25 subjects with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD). ERP and FVEP recordings were obtained from 21 and 23 subjects, respectively. Ranking of the annual rate of change in cognitive scales vs. baseline ERP/FVEP latencies was compared, and those with longer FVEP N(2) component latencies showed slower subsequent rates of decline (tau=0.32; z=2.16; P=0.015), suggesting that further study of FVEP responses as prognostic markers in AD is warranted.

Background And Objectives: While Hispanic/Latino populations in the U.S. are remarkably diverse in terms of birthplace and age at migration, we poorly understand how these factors are associated with cognitive aging.

Aging leads to cognitive decline and increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases. While molecular changes in central nervous system (CNS) cells contribute to this decline, the mechanisms are not fully understood. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators of cellular functions.
