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).

Expressed CHRFAM7A, a human restricted gene with carrier frequency of 75% in the human population predicts profound translational significance.
Method: The physiological role of CHRFAM7A in human brain is explored using multiomics approach on 600 post mortem human brain tissue samples (ROSMAP).
Background: It is essential that both drug and lifestyle-based interventions aimed at delaying the functional decline in conditions like Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs) capture change in functioning that incorporates the person's voice. Such brain health priorities can vary across populations and it is unclear to what degree findings from the ePSOM program in the UK might apply to the US.
Methods: We conducted an online nationwide study to understand what matters to people aged 50 and older about their brain health in the US.
Alzheimers Dement

Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health, Las Vegas, NV, USA.
Background: Prior research has demonstrated the positive association between social support and cognition. Specifically, greater social support has been linked with improved cognitive performance and reduced risk of dementia. In particular, emotional support has been identified as a key dimension in the relationship between social support and cognition.

Background: In Uganda, caregivers of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) face complex challenges, often lacking specialized skills for effective caregiving. Despite the growing prevalence of ADRD in the country, there's a significant literature gap on caregiver selection and obstacles faced in urban and rural areas. This study aims to provide insights into the experiences of Ugandan caregivers, enhancing understanding of ADRD caregiving.
