Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Background: Blood pressure (BP) management is an accessible therapeutic target for dementia prevention. BP variability (BPV) is a newer aspect of BP control recently associated with cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD), independent of traditionally targeted mean BP levels. Most of this work has relied on largely non-Hispanic White study samples in observational cohorts.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Dementia Research Centre, UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, London, United Kingdom.
The recent positive phase 3 clinical trials of new treatments and their licensing and roll-out in the US and other countries represents a major turning point in Alzheimer's disease research. As has been the case with many other diseases, e.g.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Amsterdam Neuroscience, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam UMC, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Background: The first disease-modifying treatments (DMTs) for Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been approved in the USA, marking profound changes in AD-diagnosis and treatment. This will bring new challenges in terms of clinician-patient communication. We aimed to collect the perspectives of memory clinic professionals regarding the most important topics to address and what (tools) would support professionals and their patients and care partners to engage in a meaningful conversation on whether (or not) to initiate treatment.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Imperial College London, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Background: Recent growth in the functionality and use of technology has prompted an increased interest in the potential for remote or decentralised clinical trials in dementia. There are many potential benefits associated with decentralised medication trials, but the field is currently lacking specific recommendations for their delivery in the dementia field.
Method: A modified Delphi method engaged a panel with substantial expertise in dementia trial design and delivery and backgrounds that included neurology, psychiatry, pharmacology and psychology, to develop recommendations for the conduct of decentralised medication trials in dementia prevention.
Background: Recent anti-amyloid mAb trial results demonstrate slowing of Alzheimer's disease progression, but to date do not fully halt or reverse this progression. Optimization of anti-amyloid therapy (timing and duration of intervention, modality, combinations, biomarker guidance) is limited by incomplete understanding of the disease, such as relationship between amyloid and tau pathways. Mechanistic Alzheimer's progression modeling investigated how amyloid and tau pathologies are connected in driving progression.
