Deep learning models based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been used to classify Alzheimer's disease or infer dementia severity from T1-weighted brain MRI scans. Here, we examine the value of adding diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI) as an in...
BACKGROUND: The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is associated with dementia. However, the risk factors of dementia in patients with ASCVD remain unclear, necessitating the development of accurate prediction models.
BACKGROUND: Understanding the dementia disease trajectory and clinical practice patterns in outpatient settings is vital for effective management. Knowledge about the path from initial memory loss complaints to dementia diagnosis remains limited.
BACKGROUND: Dementia is a multifaceted disorder that affects cognitive function, necessitating accurate diagnosis for effective management and treatment. Although the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is widely used to assess cognitive impairment,...
BACKGROUND: The application of intelligent robots in therapy is becoming more and more important for people with dementia. More extensive research is still needed to evaluate its impact on behavioral and psychological dementia symptoms, as well as qu...
