The Mediterranean diet (MeDi) has been related to a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease; yet, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. We hypothesized that protection against neurodegeneration would translate into higher gray matter volumes, whereas specific association with preserved white microstructure suggest alternative (e.g., vascular pathways).We included 146 participants from Bordeaux Three-City study nondemented when they completed dietary questionnaire and who underwent 3-T magnetic...

Abstract Background Structural alterations of a large network characterize Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the time course these changes remains unclear. The dynamic was examined in AD preclinical phase using data from 10‐year follow‐up population‐based cohort (Bordeaux‐3City). Methods Participants received neuropsychological assessments every 2 years and two identical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams at baseline 4 later. Twenty‐five incident cases were compared with 319 subjects who...
