Stages of Preeclampsia or Types of Preeclampsia Preeclampsia in pregnant women can be divided into three types: 1. high blood pressure but no protein in the urine 2. high blood pressure with protein but no tremors and 3. high blood pressure with protein as well as tremors also. What causes...
Joyce Gray of Alzheime’s Scotland said, “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.” Another advantage of using the pets as companions is that dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship....
The 'Automated MRI' software automatically compares or benchmarks someone’s brain scan image against 1200 others, each showing varying stages of Alzheimer’s disease. This collection of images is thought to be the largest of its kind in the world. Normally in routine clinical practice, brain s...
Pathological alterations in the microtubule-associated protein (MAP) tau are well-established in a number of neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's Disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and others. Tau protein and in some cases, neurofilament sub...
The Functional Assessment Staging procedure is a clinical instrument which has been designed for staging Alzheimer's disease (AD) from the stage of no deficits to the pre-clinical stage of subjective deficits, to Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), to the stages of AD. This study examined the ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. As early detection and diagnosis is imperative for the intervention and prevention of its progression into more detrimental stages, pioneering works have been proposed that use the resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI)...
Physiotherapy, Department of Health Sciences, Lund University, Lund, Sweden Background: The purpose of this work was to study the performance and reliability of a test of fast alternating forearm movements and its relationship with measures of lower extremity function in older women with dementia. ...
dementia [107,108]. Interestingly, epileptiform activity has also been linked to increased Aβ production and the accelerated deposition of amyloid plaques, hence contributing to AD progression [109,110]. Subtle changes in hippocampal network activity during the preclinical stages of AD have been ...
An outbreak tied to the burgers has sickened at least 49 people in 10 states, including a person who died, federal health officials have said. Investigators said they were focused on slivered onions as a potential source of the infections....
Rer1p binds to the same polar residues on the NCT TMD that are essential for interaction with APH1, and thus blocks APH1 interaction with NCT during the early stages of γ-secretase complex assembly. Hence, Rer1p controls formation of γ-secretase subcomplexes and, concomitantly, total ...
