Psychosomatic medicine has undergone dynamic development in the Czech Republic in recent years. The Society of Psychosomatic Medicine of the Czech Medical Association of J. E. Purkyně was founded in 2014. It develops both the professional side of this field and strives for better integration of psychosomatic care into the Czech health care system. After several years of effort, it succeeded in obtaining approval of the medical procedure code in the field of psychosomatics (909) "psychosomatic intervention". The text of Recommended Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures for Psychosomatic Care describes the recommended movement of the psychosomatic patient through the health care system, diagnostic categories in psychosomatic medicine and related differential diagnosis, and basic diagnostic units in psychosomatic medicine.

Similar investigations in familial cases of Alzheimer's disease are still lacking.
Objectives: To test whether presenilin-1 E280A mutation carriers have reduced basal forebrain functional connectivity and whether this is linked to amyloid pathology.
