Cognitive Reserve and Related Constructs: A Unified Framework Across Cognitive and Brain Dimensions of Aging
William S. Kremen,Jeremy A. Elman,Matthew S. Panizzon,Graham M L Eglit,Mark Sanderson-Cimino,McKenna E. Williams,Michael J. Lyons,Carol E. Franz +7 more
TL;DR: Cognitive reserve and related constructs are valuable for aging-related research, but consistency and clarification of terms is needed as there is still no universally agreed upon nomenclature as mentioned in this paper .
Journal ArticleDOI

Hong Xian,Terrie Vasilopoulos,Weijian Liu,Richard L. Hauger,Kristen C. Jacobson,Michael J. Lyons,Matthew S. Panizzon,Chandra A. Reynolds,Eero Vuoksimaa,William S. Kremen,Carol E. Franz +10 more
TL;DR: This study examined patterns of change in adiposity across four decades starting in young adulthood as well as associations between change and midlife cardiometabolic outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Internalizing and externalizing psychopathology in middle age: genetic and environmental architecture and stability of symptoms over 15 to 20 years
TL;DR: Findings demonstrate the considerable stability of internalizing and externalizing psychopathology symptoms across middle age, especially their genetic influences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imputing Observed Blood Pressure for Antihypertensive Treatment: Impact on Population and Genetic Analyses
Brinda K. Rana,Anish Dhamija,Matthew S. Panizzon,Kelly M. Spoon,Terrie Vasilopoulos,Carol E. Franz,Michael D. Grant,Kristen C. Jacobson,Kathleen Kim,Michael J. Lyons,Jeanne M. McCaffery,Phyllis K. Stein,Hong Xian,Daniel T. O'Connor,William S. Kremen +14 more
TL;DR: This study highlights the potential usefulness of applying a representative adjustment for medication use, such as by considering drug class, ethnicity, and the combination of drugs when assessing the relationship between BP and risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic influence on contrast sensitivity in middle-aged male twins
Alice Cronin-Golomb,Matthew S. Panizzon,Michael J. Lyons,Carol E. Franz,Michael D. Grant,Kristen C. Jacobson,Seth A. Eisen,Thomas M. Laudate,William S. Kremen +8 more
TL;DR: Identifying the types of individual-specific events that impact contrast sensitivity may suggest interventions to modulate this ability and thereby improve overall quality of life as adults age.
