TL;DR: These findings demonstrate an association between specific network changes in AD and particular neuropsychiatric symptom types, and underlines the potential clinical significance of resting state alterations in future diagnosis and therapy.

TL;DR: TA is a useful technique to aid in the detection of tissue alterations in MR images of mild AD and aMCI and has the potential to become a helpful tool in the diagnosis and understanding of these pathologies.

TL;DR: After semantic cues, subjects with aMCI and control subjects gave more correct answers than patients with mild AD, but after phonemic cues, there was no difference between the three groups, suggesting that the low performance of patients with AD cannot be completely explained by semantic breakdown.

TL;DR: The results establish that obesity is associated with increases in CSF palmitate and suggest that anti-inflammatory strategies may attenuate memory impairment in obesity, and define a pro-inflammatory mechanism by which abnormal levels ofPalmitate in the brain impair memory.

TL;DR: Comparing caregiver burden and distress in behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and to investigate which factors contribute to caregivers'urden and distress, caregivers of bv FTD patients experienced higher levels of distress than caregivers of AD patients.
