Loss of neurons from the substantia nigra (SN), which is sometimes observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD), was quantitatively analyzed in 10 cases of presenile AD and 19 age-matched controls. On sections from the upper and lower portions of the SN, the pigmented zone (zona compacta) and the non-pigmen

To identify neuropsychiatric and somatic factors related to survival in early-onset Alzheimer's disease, we longitudinally studied 108 patients (35 male, 73 female) with early-onset Alzheimer's disease who were 46 to 64 years old at onset and 50 to 69 years old when diagnosed at our institution. A f
The apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype is a significant risk factor and modulator of age of onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We analyzed the effect of the ApoE genotype in two distinct early-onset familial AD groups: families with a mutation in the presenilin-1 gene (PS-1) on chromosome 14, and fami
## Abstract ## Objectives To compare the neuropsychological performance associated with early and late onset Alzheimer's disease (AD), in order to identify differences and compare these with previous reports. ## Methods Patients attending a memory clinic were given a detailed multi‐disciplinary
## Abstract Previous studies have led to the proposal that patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) may have disturbed functional connectivity between different brain regions. Furthermore, recent resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have also shown that low‐frequency (<0
