This cross-sectional study examines a sleep electroencephalography-based brain age index as a potential biomarker associated with dementia.
—we studied the anatomical distribution of disease related brain atrophy changes in Alzheimer's disease patients and how the factors of sex and age affect this abnormal aging in 2-year longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of the Alzheimer's diseaseY Liu...
Our genetic results from GM-BAG substantiate that many diseases, conditions, and clinical phenotypes share genetic underpinnings with brain age, perhaps driven by macrostructural changes in GM (e.g., brain atrophy). The locus with the most significant signal (the top lead SNP rs534114641 at 17...
A landmarkUniversity of Oxford studyfound that vitamins B6, B12, and folic acid, which are abundant in green leafy vegetables, work together to reduce brain atrophy, improve brain function, and dramatically reduce brain shrinkage in the region of the brain most affected by Alzheimer’s. Vitamin ...
However, different ways of estimating asymmetry can introduce variability in its depen- dency with age33, and covariates of brain age require further investigation34,35. To extend the existing brain age conceptualisation of using features across the whole brain and to maximise interpretability, we ...
The idea has been fiercely debated, and it used to be thought we were born with all the brain cells we will ever have. The researchers at the University of Madrid also showed that the number of new brain cells tailed off with age. And it falls dramatically in the early stages of ...
Age-associated disease and disability are placing a growing burden on society. However, ageing does not affect people uniformly. Hence, markers of the underlying biological ageing process are needed to help identify people at increased risk of age-associ
Focal atrophy can occur from a variety of sudden conditions. Strokes are one such possibility. With a stroke, the interruption of blood supply to a specific part of the brain results in brain cell loss and cerebral atrophy. The severity of atrophy related to a stroke depends on the severity...
Age-Related Brain Atrophy: A Study With Computed Tomography1 Brain atrophy in 176 men and 205 women without neurologic disturbances was studied using x-ray computed tomography. The ages ranged from 21 to 79 years. We... S Takeda,T Matsuzawa - 《Journal of Gerontology》 被引量: 0发表: 1985...
Though the study didn’t look at potential mechanisms linking visceral fat and brain shrinkage, one hypothesis is that this type of fat is thought to produce inflammatory substances that may play a role in brain atrophy, the researchers said. ...
