Using Retinal Imaging to Study Dementia09:17

Using Retinal Imaging to Study Dementia

22.2K
The retina shares prominent similarities with the brain and thus represents a unique window to study vasculature and neuronal structure in the brain non-invasively. This protocol describes a method to study dementia using retinal imaging techniques. This method can potentially aid in diagnosis and risk assessment of...

Dementia

531
Dementia is a collective term for cognitive disorders primarily affecting memory, thinking, and reasoning. It is not a specific disease but a syndrome, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common cause, accounting for approximately 60-80% of cases. Other types include vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Dementia affects millions worldwide, particularly older adults, though it is not a normal part of aging.
The progression of dementia is generally gradual....

Radionuclide-fluorescence Reporter Gene Imaging to Track Tumor Progression in Rodent Tumor Models

12.5K
We describe a protocol for preclinical in vivo tracking of cancer metastasis. It is based on a radionuclide-fluorescence reporter combining the sodium iodide symporter, detected by non-invasive [18F]tetrafluoroborate-PET, and a fluorescent protein for streamlined ex vivo confirmation. The method is applicable for preclinical in vivo cell tracking beyond tumor...

The 4 Mountains Test: A Short Test of Spatial Memory with High Sensitivity for the Diagnosis of Pre-dementia Alzheimer's Disease

33.8K
This article describes the 4 Mountains Test (4MT), a hippocampus-dependent test of working allocentric spatial memory. The hippocampus is affected early in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and this article outlines the 4MT methodology and results of patient testing, which demonstrates the value of the 4MT in the diagnosis of pre-dementia AD.

A Mouse Model for Vascular Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Based on Needle-guided Asymmetric Bilateral Common Carotid Artery Stenosis05:12

A Mouse Model for Vascular Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Based on Needle-guided Asymmetric Bilateral Common Carotid Artery Stenosis

1.4K
The needle method of asymmetric bilateral common carotid artery stenosis is proposed to create a mouse model for vascular cognitive impairment and dementia. It results in longer-term outcomes compared to previously established models and is compatible with live MRI. Visual representation demonstrating the procedure provides guidance for mastering the...

Area of Science:

  • Demography
  • Gerontology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • India's population aged 60+ was over 76 million in 2001, representing 7.4% of the total population.
  • This demographic is projected to grow significantly in the coming decades.
  • Regional variations in demographic aging exist, with higher proportions in areas with better health indicators.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the demographic trends of India's aging population.
  • To highlight regional disparities in the aging process across India.
  • To underscore the growing need for specialist services and caregiver support for the elderly, particularly those with disabilities.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 2001 census data.
  • Examination of population statistics related to age distribution.
  • Comparison of demographic aging rates across different Indian states and union territories.

Main Results:

  • Significant variation in the rate of demographic aging across India was observed.
  • Kerala had 10.5% of its population over 60, contrasting with Dadra and Nagarhaveli's 4%.
  • Areas with better health indicators are aging faster, indicating a future demand for specialized services.

Conclusions:

  • India's elderly population is rapidly increasing, with regional variations.
  • The care of older adults with disabilities places substantial demands on caregivers.
  • Dementia and Alzheimer's disease awareness is growing, yet dementia remains a hidden issue in impoverished, illiterate communities.
