I'm thrilled to share our latest research published in JAMA Network Open. We explored brain and ML-informed neuropsychiatric subsyndromes to delineate dementia subtypes. Our findings offer fresh insights into the neuropsychiatric and brain functional heterogeneity of dementia, improving their clinical management and facilitating the timely development of targeted interventions.

A very interesting article which brings evidence on the connection between olfaction and neuronal activity, including memory and neuronal growth. A relatively unexplored field despite number of results listed in the article bringing additional evidence to this study amazing results: 226% improvement in a memory scale after 6 months exposure! This paves the way to new reseach in neurodegenerative disease, but also brain injury and post Covid cognitive syndrome, through an original target and route of treatment. https://lnkd.in/eRrwfD-W

June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month. To raise awareness about Alzheimer’s, here are a few facts: 💜 Dementia hits minority populations disproportionately. Black people are twice as likely to develop dementia as white people; Hispanics are 1.5 times more likely. 💜 About 6.5 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s disease. That number is expected to double by 2050. A new diagnosis of dementia in this country occurs about once every 65 seconds. If you suspect that a loved one might be showing signs of Alzheimer’s, ARC Neurology can help. At ARC, we provide the most up-to-date neurological diagnosis and treatment options available.

Low intensity light to fight the effects of chronic stress https://lnkd.in/dBhSFT8i Some neurological disorders can be improved through photobiomodulation, a non-invasive technique based on the application of low-intensity light to stimulate altered functions in specific regions of the body. Now, a study reveals how photobiomodulation applied to the brain-gut axis is effective in recovering some cognitive alterations and sequelae caused by chronic stress. The study opens up new perspectives for applying the technique in future therapies for the treatment of neurological diseases in patients.

The scientists found through their research that participants with lower scores on the visual sensitivity test had a higher risk of a future dementia diagnosis on average 12 years before the diagnosis, especially when this test is used along with other specific memory tests and some tests of global cognitive functioning worked well to predict this risk. #worldhealth #publichealth #antiaging #aging #regenerativemedicine #neurosciences #neuoscience #neurodegenerative #dementia #cognition #alzheimersdisease #alzheimers #health #clinicalresearch https://lnkd.in/gns-nKeP

Brain size increases. And it matters Be that as it may, the larger the size of the brain, the better its general condition and the “purity” of cognitive functions. The following article will provide evidence that the human brain has been gradually increasing in size since the 1930s. New research shows how this affects the risk of developing dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease.

Another article from our research team, titled "A Surprising Presentation of Atypical Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration Disorder: Metamorphopsia," discusses a rare and unexpected symptom in a patient with atypical pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN). PKAN is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder characterized by iron accumulation in the brain, typically presenting with movement disorders such as dystonia and parkinsonism. In this case, the patient exhibited metamorphopsia, a visual distortion where objects appear misshapen, which is unusual for PKAN. This symptom underscores the variability in clinical presentations of the disorder and suggests that PKAN can affect visual pathways more significantly than previously understood. The study emphasizes the need for clinicians to consider a broad range of symptoms when diagnosing and managing PKAN and highlights the importance of further research into the diverse manifestations of this condition. This valuable article has been published in The Neurological Sciences journal and you can access it for reading through the following link: https://lnkd.in/d5SjX2vw. #NBIA

What is brain stimulation? What forms of invasive and, above all, non-invasive brain stimulation procedures (NIBS) are available, what is the current state of scientific knowledge and where can patients with Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's, depression or other neurological and psychiatric diseases be treated today? And why is there still so little public information outside specialist circles about this new era in medicine, which can complement the prevailing psychopharmacological methods of recent decades so extensively with innovative methods such as Transcranial Pulse stimulation (TPS)? "Alzheimer Science", the information portal on Alzheimer's research, neuroscience and brain stimulation, has recently taken a look around and added an overview article entitled "Who uses brain stimulation?" to its "Brain stimulation" information section. The conclusion is that NIBS represent a significant advance in personalized medicine. They represent not only a supplement to existing therapies, but also a step towards more precise and effective treatment that can sustainably improve the lives of patients with complex neurological and mental illnesses. However, public and general information and media coverage of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is not yet keeping pace with scientific interest and clinical applications. Much more needs to be done here, as more and more professional societies are demanding. Further information on the state of research and treatment options for those affected by brain stimulation procedures can be found here: https://lnkd.in/dNRUrHkU #alzheimerscience #brainstimulation #noninvasivebrainstimulation #nibs #transcranialpulsestimulation #tps #brainstimulationapplication #brainstimulationclinic #brainstimulationinpractice #brainstimulationinformation #brainstimulationinthemedia
