A preliminary study of the reliability and validity of the Uyghur version of the NUCOG cognitive screening application.

BMC neurology
INTRODUCTION: Technological advances and artificial intelligence now make it feasible to administer cognitive assessments on touch-screen devices. The aim of this study is to develop a Uyghur version of the NUCOG cognitive screening application and e...

Associations between the 24-h Activity Daily Cycle and Incident Dementia.

Medicine and science in sports and exercise
BACKGROUND: Physical activity, sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep all impact the risk of incident dementia, however, engagement in these activities is constrained by the 24-h day. Increasing time spent in one activity necessarily reduces time spent i...

Systematic Identification of Caregivers of Patients Living With Dementia in the Electronic Health Record: Known Contacts and Natural Language Processing Cohort Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Systemically identifying caregivers in the electronic health record (EHR) is a critical step for delivering patient-centered care, enhancing care coordination, and advancing research and population health efforts in caregiving. Despite EH...

Social robot PIO intervention for improving cognitive function and depression in older adults with mild to moderate dementia in day care centers: A randomized controlled trial.

PloS one
The increases in the older population, the prevalence of dementia, and the resulting social costs are burdensome to individuals, families, and the nation. This study examines whether the social robot PIO program intervention is effective for cognitiv...

Using machine learning and electronic health record (EHR) data for the early prediction of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias.

The journal of prevention of Alzheimer's disease
BACKGROUND: Over 6 million patients in the United States are affected by Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD). Early detection of ADRD can significantly improve patient outcomes through timely treatment.

Automated phenotyping of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias using electronic health records.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: Unstructured and structured data in electronic health records (EHR) are a rich source of information for research and quality improvement studies. However, extracting accurate information from EHR is labor-intensive. Timely and accurate i...

Exploring the perceptions and experiences of caregivers with the application of socially assistive robots in dementia care: A systematic review of qualitative studies.

International journal of nursing studies
BACKGROUND: The use of socially assistive robots in dementia care is growing, aimed at improving patient well-being and alleviating caregiver burden. Refining the utilisation of robotic assistance in individuals with dementia is critical, drawing on ...

Unsupervised Deep Learning of Electronic Health Records to Characterize Heterogeneity Across Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias: Cross-Sectional Study.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRD) exhibit prominent heterogeneity. Identifying clinically meaningful ADRD subtypes is essential for tailoring treatments to specific patient phenotypes.

Uncovering hidden subtypes in dementia: An unsupervised machine learning approach to dementia diagnosis and personalization of care.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Dementia represents a growing public health challenge, affecting an increasing number of individuals. It encompasses a broad spectrum of cognitive impairments, ranging from mild to severe stages, each of which demands varying levels of car...

Using Deep Learning to Perform Automatic Quantitative Measurement of Masseter and Tongue Muscles in Persons With Dementia: Cross-Sectional Study.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass and strength) increases adverse outcomes risk and contributes to cognitive decline in older adults. Accurate methods to quantify muscle mass and predict adverse outcomes, particularly in older persons with ...
