Background: Epidemiological studies report an elevated risk of neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Parkinson's disease (PD), in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that is mitigated in those prescribed incretin mimetics or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4Is). Incretin mimetic repurposing appears promising in human PD and Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. DPP-4Is are yet to be evaluated in PD or AD human studies.

These trials both included an 18-month, randomized study (core) and an open-label extension (OLE) phase where eligible participants received open-label lecanemab for up to 30 months to date. Clinical (CDR-SB, ADAS-Cog14, and ADCS-MCI-ADL), biomarker (PET, Aβ42/40 ratio, and ptau181) and safety outcomes were evaluated.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
The Education University of Hong Kong, Tai Po, New Territories, Hong Kong.
Background: Lexical retrieval therapy (LRT) has been proven to be an effective speech therapy for individuals with semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) and semantic cue plays an important ingredient in LRT. In recent findings, differential performance in using and choosing noun-classifiers amongst Chinese individuals with the three subtypes of PPA were observed. The current study aims to explore the treatment effect of employing noun-classifier as a semantic cue of LRT for Cantonese-speaking svPPA.
