Activity cycles were studied in 12 subjects clinically diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Subjects wore a movement sensor attached to a solid-state ambulatory monitor for 96 consecutive hours each. Varying degrees of fragmentation of the normal diurnal activity pattern were observed. Subject variab

Clinicians caring for Alzheimer patients have observed that many have disruptions in nocturnal sleep patterns. Despite their obvious clinical importance, little research has been conducted to investigate abnormal activity patterns in these patients. In this study, diurnal rest/activity patterns were
The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence was determined on 3 patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) exhibiting AD plus Parkinson's disease (PD) neuropathologic changes and one patient with PD. Patient mtDNA sequences were compared to the standard Cambridge sequence to identify base changes. In the fir
## Abstract We developed a novel quantitative assay to test the hypothesis that defects in DNA cytosine methylation might be responsible for the brain chromatin abnormalities and transcriptional alterations observed in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). We found no significant difference in pe
## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the relationship between MR image contrast associated with beta‐amyloid (Aβ) plaques and their histology and compare the histopathological basis of image contrast and the relaxation mechanism associated with Aβ plaques in human Alzheimer's disease (AD) and tra
