概括
在主观认知衰退 (SCD) 患者中,嗅觉识别能力较低,这表明嗅觉缺陷可能在认知障碍之前出现. 这一发现支持使用气味识别测试用于早期阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 查.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 老年学是一门学科.
- 嗅觉研究 嗅觉研究
背景情况:
- 嗅觉识别的下降与阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 生物标志物有关.
- 嗅觉缺陷可能会在可测量的认知衰退之前出现,甚至在主观认知衰退 (SCD) 阶段出现.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较SCD和认知正常 (CN) 个体之间的气味识别能力.
- 调查认知差异是否影响这些群体的嗅觉缺陷.
主要方法:
- 在四个数据库中进行了系统的文献搜索.
- 随机效应的元分析综合了来自11项研究的数据,其中包括660名SCD和574名50岁以上的CN参与者.
主要成果:
- 与CN参与者相比,SCD患者的气味识别得分明显较低 (SMD = -0.67,p = .04).
- 超回归表明,SCD中的嗅觉缺陷发生在显著的认知差异之外,没有更大的认知衰退和更大的嗅觉障碍之间的一致关联.
结论:
- 在SCD患者中观察到减少嗅觉识别,这表明嗅觉衰退可能在明显的认知障碍之前出现.
- 气味识别可以作为一种有价值的,非侵入性查工具,用于早期检测阿尔茨海默病风险.

Olfaction
44.0K
The sense of smell is achieved through the activities of the olfactory system. It starts when an airborne odorant enters the nasal cavity and reaches olfactory epithelium (OE). The OE is protected by a thin layer of mucus, which also serves the purpose of dissolving more complex compounds into simpler chemical odorants. The size of the OE and the density of sensory neurons varies among species; in humans, the OE is only about 9-10 cm2.

Alzheimer's Disease: Overview
350
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a continually advancing neurodegenerative disorder, distinguished by escalating memory loss, cognitive dysfunction, and dementia. The disease unfolds in three stages: preclinical, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia. Its onset is insidious, and the progression gradual, with the cause not well explained by other disorders.
The clinical diagnosis of AD hinges on the presence of memory and other cognitive impairments. Biomarkers, such as changes in Aβ...
