Inflammation as a central mechanism in Alzheimer's disease Tập 4 Số 1 - Trang 575-590 - 2018
Jefferson W. Kinney, Shane M. Bemiller, Andrew S. Murtishaw, Amanda M. Leisgang, Arnold Salazar, Bruce T. Lamb
AbstractAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder
that is characterized by cognitive decline and the presence of two core
pathologies, amyloid β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Over the last
decade, the presence of a sustained immune response in the brain has emerged as
a third core pathology in AD. The sustained activation of the brain's resident
macrophages (micro... hiện toàn bộ
Alzheimer's disease drug development pipeline: 2018 Tập 4 Số 1 - Trang 195-214 - 2018
Jeffrey L. Cummings, Garam Lee, Aaron Ritter, Kate Zhong
AbstractIntroductionTreatments for Alzheimer's disease (AD) are needed due to
the growing number of individuals with preclinical, prodromal, and dementia
forms of AD. Drug development for AD therapies can be examined by inspecting the
drug development pipeline as represented on
clinicaltrials.gov.MethodsClinicaltrials.gov was assessed as of January 30, 2018
to determine AD therapies represented in... hiện toàn bộ
Alzheimer's disease drug development pipeline: 2017 Tập 3 Số 3 - Trang 367-384 - 2017
Jeffrey L. Cummings, Garam Lee, Travis Mortsdorf, Aaron Ritter, Kate Zhong
AbstractIntroductionThere is an urgent need to develop new treatments for
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and to understand the drug development process for new
AD therapies.MethodsWe assessed the agents in the AD pipeline as documented in
clinicaltrials.gov for phase I, phase II, and phase III, accessed
1/5/2017.ResultsThere are 105 agents in the AD treatment development pipeline,
of which 25 agents are... hiện toàn bộ
Sedentary behavior as a risk factor for cognitive decline? A focus on the influence of glycemic control in brain health Tập 3 Số 3 - Trang 291-300 - 2017
Michael J. Wheeler, Paddy C. Dempsey, Megan S. Grace, Kathryn A. Ellis, Paul A. Gardiner, Daniel J. Green, David W. Dunstan
AbstractCognitive decline leading to dementia represents a global health burden.
In the absence of targeted pharmacotherapy, lifestyle approaches remain the best
option for slowing the onset of dementia. However, older adults spend very
little time doing moderate to vigorous exercise and spend a majority of time in
sedentary behavior. Sedentary behavior has been linked to poor glycemic control
and... hiện toàn bộ
Accelerating drug development for Alzheimer's disease through the use of data standards Tập 3 - Trang 273-283 - 2017
Jon Neville, Steve Kopko, Klaus Romero, Brian Corrigan, Bob Stafford, Elizabeth LeRoy, Steve Broadbent, Martin Cisneroz, Ethan Wilson, Eric Reiman, Hugo Vanderstichele, Stephen P. Arnerić, Diane Stephenson
AbstractIntroductionThe exceedingly high rate of failed trials in Alzheimer's
disease (AD) calls for immediate attention to improve efficiencies and learning
from past, ongoing, and future trials. Accurate, highly rigorous standardized
data are at the core of meaningful scientific research. Data standards allow for
proper integration of clinical data sets and represent the essential foundation
for... hiện toàn bộ
Amyloid‐associated increases in longitudinal report of subjective cognitive complaints Tập 4 - Trang 444-449 - 2018
Rebecca E. Amariglio, Rachel F. Buckley, Elizabeth C. Mormino, Gad A. Marshall, Keith A. Johnson, Dorene M. Rentz, Reisa A. Sperling
AbstractIntroductionTo investigate whether baseline subjective cognitive
complaints (SCCs) predict longitudinal decline on neuropsychological testing and
whether SCC increases longitudinally, in the setting of high levels of amyloid
burden.MethodsTwo hundred seventy‐nine clinically normal older participants
(mean age = 73.7 ± 6.1 years) from the Harvard Aging Brain Study, a cohort of
community‐dwe... hiện toàn bộ
Pregnancy loss and risk of later dementia: A nationwide cohort study, Denmark, 1977–2017 Tập 5 - Trang 146-153 - 2019
Saima Basit, Jan Wohlfahrt, Heather A. Boyd
AbstractIntroductionPregnancy losses may be associated with increased risks of
dementia.MethodsWe conducted a register‐based cohort study in 1,243,957 women
with ≥1 pregnancy in Denmark in the period 1977–2015. Using Cox regression, we
estimated hazard ratios (HRs) comparing risks of dementia in women with and
without pregnancy losses.ResultsDuring 21,672,433 person‐years of follow‐up,

A 24‐week study to evaluate the effect of rilapladib on cognition and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease Tập 1 - Trang 131-140 - 2015
Gareth Maher-Edwards, Jeni De'Ath, Carly Barnett, Arseniy Lavrov, Andrew Lockhart
AbstractBackgroundThe lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2 inhibitor
(Lp‐PLA2), rilapladib (SB659032), is being evaluated as a potential treatment to
slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD).MethodsOne hundred twenty‐four
subjects with possible mild AD and with neuroimaging evidence of cerebrovascular
disease were randomized to placebo or 250‐mg rilapladib once daily, for
24 weeks, in a... hiện toàn bộ
Design of the ExCersion‐VCI study: The effect of aerobic exercise on cerebral perfusion in patients with vascular cognitive impairment Tập 3 - Trang 157-165 - 2017

AbstractThere is evidence for a beneficial effect of aerobic exercise on
cognition, but underlying mechanisms are unclear. In this study, we test the
hypothesis that aerobic exercise increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) in patients
with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). This study is a multicenter
single‐blind randomized controlled trial among 80 patients with VCI. Most
important inclusion crite... hiện toàn bộ
