"alzheimer"

A group of researchers from University of Queensland, Queensland Brain Institute, Brisbane, Australia, have found out that ultrasound technology therapy potentially can boost cognitive function of the brain among people with Alzheimer ’s disease.

The highly pathogenic bird flu (H5N1), not only invades mammalian brains but can also enter the human central nervous system, creating major complications in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.

Narendra Kumar, an associate professor at Texas A&M University in the US, led a study published in the 'American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology' journal, revealing a strong connection between diabetes and Alzheimer's disease.

The study examined whether a clinically evident Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) infection raised the risk of Alzheimer's disease in individuals 50 years of age and older.

The participants were followed for more than 30 years (average age of 79) and then asked to report any cognitive complaints.

Although more than 3 percent of the adult population in the United States has ADHD, there is limited research on this group.

The clinical trial included 1,736 participants with early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease and amyloid and tau pathology, a predictive biomarker for disease progression

The study provides important insight into how oral bacteria makes its way to the brain, and the role of neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease.

The study builds upon Smith's previous research, which showed how walking may decrease cerebral blood flow and improve brain function in older adults with mild cognitive impairment.

People who have sleep apnoea and spend less time in deep sleep may be more likely to have brain biomarkers that have been linked to an increased risk of stroke, Alzheimer's disease

The human brain has a sweet tooth, burning through nearly one quarter of the body's sugar energy, or glucose, each day.

Premature menopause, defined as menopause that occurs spontaneously before the age of 40 or due to surgical intervention before the age of 45, has been associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease.

A team of researchers is developing a "dual-mode brain-sensing device" that detects Alzheimer's disease (AD) quickly and effectively, a new report has said.

He explained: "It's not a pre-deterministic gene, but it is a strong indication. Ten years ago, I think it was more thought of as determinant."

A new drug in the development stage is now offering hope for millions of patients suffering from the debilitating Alzheimer’s

New Delhi: A team of Australian researchers has discovered a potential blood biomarker that can signal the risk of dementia much earlier and help people to make lifestyle changes to help ward off the disease. Researchers from Macquarie University and the CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency found that people with increased levels of 3-HAA can […]

San Francisco: According to a recent study, the drowsiness that many Alzheimer’s patients experience are caused not by a lack of sleep, but rather by the degeneration of a type of neuron that keeps us awake. It also confirmed that the tau protein is behind that neurodegeneration. The findings of the study were published in […]

The team recruited patients with MCI or mild Alzheimer’s disease and assigned them into Meditation and Control groups.

The findings, published in Alzheimer's Research and Therapy, indicate an overlap between COVID-19 and brain changes common in Alzheimer's and may help inform risk management and therapeutic strategies for COVID-19

To understand why this region is so sensitive, the University of Sussex researchers, headed up by Dr Catherine Hall from the School of Psychology and Sussex Neuroscience, studied brain activity
