Subjective cognitive decline, a perceived worsening of functioning without objective deficit on assessment, could indicate incipient dementia. However, the neural correlates subjective decline as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging remain somewhat unclear. Here, we evaluated differences in functional connectivity across memory regions, and performance, between healthy older adults aged 50 to 85 with (n = 35, Age 68.5 ± 7.7, 22 female), 48, 67.0 8.8, 29 female) decline. We also neurite...
Background: Yoga is a mind-body based physical activity that has demonstrated variety of physiological, psychological and cognitive health benefits. Although yoga practice shown to improve performance, few studies have examined the underlying neurological correlates. Objective: The current study aimed determine differences in gray matter volume hippocampus, thalamus, caudate nucleus brain activation during Sternberg working memory task. Method: Participants were 13 experienced practitioners...
Research in older adults with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) has mainly focused on Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related MRI markers, such as hippocampal volume. However, small vessel (SVD) is currently established serious comorbidity dementia and its preliminary stages. It therefore important to examine SVD markers addition AD presenting SCD.The aim of our study was elucidate the role late middle-aged without SCD commonly found (hippocampal volume).67 healthy participated this (mean age 68...
Large-scale brain networks undergo functional reorganization over the course of lifespan, with concurrent implications for cognition. Characterizing network connectivity during a task may provide complementary insight into cognitive development and aging, to that provided by resting-state. We assessed background connectivity, which refers remains after effects have been regressed out, visual memory-encoding in lifespan sample. More specifically we within- between-network default mode,...
Coral reefs are one of the most biologically diverse ecosystems, and accurate identification species is essential for diversity assessment conservation. Current genus determination approaches time-consuming resource-intensive can be highly subjective. To explore hypothesis that small-molecule profiles coral genus-specific used as a rapid tool to catalogue distinguish between genera, chemical fingerprints Acanthastrea echinata, Catalaphyllia jardinei, Duncanopsammia axifuga, Echinopora...
The personality traits of neuroticism, openness, and conscientiousness are relevant factors for cognitive aging outcomes. present study examined how these were associated with abilities corresponding resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) the default mode network (DMN) in an older predominantly minority sample. A sample 58 cognitively unimpaired, largely African-American, adults (M age = 68.28 ± 8.33) completed a standard RSFC magnetic resonance imaging sequence, Big Five measure...
Subjective memory complaints (SMC), the perceived decline in cognitive abilities absence of deficits on clinical assessments, may precede amnestic mild impairment (aMCI) Alzheimer's disease timeline (Reisberg et al., 2008). Individuals with SMC show increased activation prefrontal cortex during encoding (Rodda 2009), however, it is not clear whether increase specific for later remembered versus forgotten items. Greater subsequent effects (SME) have been found hippocampus among aMCI patients...
Negative subsequent memory effects in functional MRI studies of formation have been linked to individual differences performance, yet the effect age on this association is currently unclear. To provide insight into brain systems related across lifespan, we examined neuroimaging data acquired during episodic and behavioral performance from a recognition task sample 109 participants, including three developmental groups (8-12, 13-17, 18-25 year-olds) one additional group older adults (55-85...
Subjective cognitive impairment (SCI) is associated with future decline. In SCI patients, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) - changes may already occur before decline becomes evident. Small vessel (SVD) also related to However little known about SVD MRI markers in SCI. We investigate which of AD and are severity 67 healthy older adults (25 42 controls) were included the study (table 1). Severity subjective memory complaints was assessed using frequency forgetting subscale Memory Functioning...
Subjective memory complaints (SMC), perceived decline in function without objective deficit, associate with future decline. We compared performance, and functional connectivity (FC) of anterior posterior systems, between healthy older adults SMC. also examined effects SMC on uncinate cingulum diffusion characteristics. Resting fMRI cognitive data were available for 83 adults; 48 (Age = 67.0 ± 8.8, 29 female) 35 68.5 7.7, 22 female). Diffusion a subsample (N 38; 27 controls, 11 SMC)....
