Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiologic relationship between Alzheimer's disease, cerebrovascular disease, and cardiovascular risk: A review and synthesis
TL;DR: This review discusses the current understanding of the epidemiology, genetics, and pathophysiology of AD, the intersection between AD and vascular causes of dementia, and proposes future directions for research and prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Outstanding questions about white matter hyperintensities and their relation to cognition, dementia, and AD are identified and answered to improve prevention and treatment of WMHs and dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brief Wakeful Resting Boosts New Memories Over the Long Term
TL;DR: It is proposed that wakeful resting after new learning allows new memory traces to be consolidated better and hence to be retained for much longer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developing retinal biomarkers for the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease: What we know, what we don't, and how to move forward

TL;DR: The following review examines retinal structural changes, proteinopathies, and vascular alterations that have been proposed as potential AD biomarkers, with a focus on studies examining the earliest stages of disease pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Boosting long-term memory via wakeful rest: intentional rehearsal is not necessary, consolidation is sufficient.
TL;DR: It is proposed that wakeful resting allows for superior memory consolidation, resulting in stronger and/or more veridical representations of experienced events which can be detected via tests of free recall and recognition.
