Journal ArticleDOI

Association of chronic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use and cognitive decline in non-demented elderly patients admitted to a geriatric evaluation and rehabilitation unit.

TL;DR: A positive association between chronic NSAID use and cognitive function in non-demented elderly patients is supported and Randomized controlled trials will be needed to definitively prove this beneficial effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

The CST3 B haplotype is associated with frontotemporal lobar degeneration

TL;DR: This study determined whether the cystatin C gene (CST3) was genetically associated with FTLD, a common cause of early‐onset dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psychic correlates of sleep symptoms in the elderly

TL;DR: Night sleep symptoms and their relationship to a number of psychic, somatic and social variables were investigated and waking up frequently in the night showed a correlation pattern with psychic, social and somatic variables different from the other sleep symptoms, suggesting a different cause.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of brain atrophy and local gene expression in genetic frontotemporal dementia

TL;DR: The analysis suggests that these cell types may play a more active role in the onset of neurodegeneration in frontotemporal dementia than previously assumed, and in the case of the positively associated cell marker genes, potentially through emergence of neurotoxic astrocytes and alteration in the blood–brain barrier, respectively.
