Alzheimers Dement

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: We identified small molecule tricyclic pyrone compound CP2 as a mild mitochondrial complex I (MCI) inhibitor that induces neuroprotection in multiple mouse models of AD. One of the major concerns while targeting mitochondria is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). CP2 consists of two diastereoisomers, D1 and D2, with distinct activity and toxicity profiles.

Background: Using artificial intelligence approaches enable automated assessment and analysis of speech biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease, for example using chatbot technology. However, current chatbots often are unsuitable for people with cognitive impairment. Here, we implemented a user-centred-design approach to evaluate and improve usability of a chatbot system for automated speech assessments for people with preclinical, prodromal and early dementia.

Background: Conducting research remotely in aging and Alzheimer's disease related (ADRD) populations using multiple passive sensing technologies (e.g., activity watches, electronic pillboxes, bed-mats, wall-mounted sensors) provides opportunities for greater inclusiveness and more ecologically valid data capture.

Background: Paper-and-pencil neuropsychological tests have traditionally been considered the "gold standard" for clinical testing in AD/ADRD, but they have significant limitations: They are time-consuming, costly to administer, vulnerable to examiner bias and error, and unavailable to some patients due to location, transportation challenges, and cost. Manual tests also fail to comprehensively analyze many aspects of test performance. Computerized neuropsychological test batteries have been developed to address these shortcomings.
