Cognitive impairments are core features in individuals across the psychosis continuum and predict functional outcomes. Nevertheless, substantial variability in cognitive functioning within diagnostic groups, along with considerable overlap with healt...
Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most prevalent form of dementia, requires early prediction for timely intervention. Current deep learning approaches, particularly those using traditional neural networks, face challenges such as handling high-dimensiona...

BACKGROUND: Various machine learning (ML) models based on resting-state functional MRI (Rs-fMRI) have been developed to facilitate differential diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the diagnostic accurac...
BACKGROUND: While patients affected by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) exhibit characteristic voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) alterations, the ability of such VMHC abnormalities to predict the diagnosis of MCI in these patients remains u...
Semantic fluency tests are one of the key tests used in batteries for the early detection of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) as the impairment in speech and semantic memory are among the first symptoms, attracting the attention of a large number of s...

Air pollution has become a major global threat to human health. Urbanization and industrialization over the past few decades have increased the air pollution. Plausible connections have been made between air pollutants and dementia. This study used m...
BACKGROUND: The early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) remains a significant challenge in neurology, with conventional methods often limited by subjectivity and variability in interpretation. Integrating deep...

This study aimed to develop and validate prediction models for incident reversible cognitive frailty (RCF) based on social-ecological predictors. Older adults aged ≥60 years from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2011-2013 surve...
Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) and mood disorders are common in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and increase the risk of progression to dementia. Wearable devices collecting physiological and behavioral data can help in remote, pass...
