Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Applied Medical Sciences, Misr University for Science and Technology, Cairo, Egypt.
Background: Gamma desynchronization is an early pathophysiological event in Alzheimer's disease with a disturbance in oscillation in the gamma frequency range 30-80 Hz. This disruption was found to be directly related to the disease progression and severity. Thus, the use of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) possessed greater interest.

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
German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), Bonn, Germany.
Numerous drugs (including disease-modifying therapies, cognitive enhancers and neuropsychiatric treatments) are being developed for Alzheimer's and related dementias (ADRD). Emerging neuroimaging modalities, and genetic and other biomarkers potentially enhance diagnostic and prognostic accuracy. These advances need to be assessed in real-world studies (RWS).

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Burke Neurological Institute, Weill Cornell Medicine, White Plains, NY, USA.
Background: Benfotiamine, a prodrug of thiamine, raises blood levels by 50-100 times to achieve pharmacologic effects. It provides a novel therapeutic direction addressing a well-characterized brain tissue thiamine deficiency and related changes in glucose metabolism in AD. BenfoTeam is a seamless phase 2A-2B "proof of concept" (POC), double-blind, placebo-controlled RCT investigating tolerability, safety, and efficacy of benfotiamine, as a first-in-class small molecule treatment for early AD.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, USA.
Background: Recruitment challenges in people with and without Down syndrome (DS) can delay research progress and risk sample bias. This study identified and quantified differences in research attitudes across populations of research enrollment decision-makers for individuals with and without DS.
Method: We compared scores on the Research Attitudes Questionnaire (RAQ) of individuals enrolled in two recruitment registries: the UCI Consent to Contact [C2C (N = 4818)] and DS-Connect (N = 976).
