Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of normal and pathological aging in prospectively studied nondemented elderly humans
Dennis W. Dickson,Howard Crystal,L. A. Mattiace,David Masur,Alan D. Blau,Peter Davies,Shu Hui Yen,Miriam K. Aronson +7 more
TL;DR: Findings provide strong support for the hypothesis that cerebral amyloid deposition is not necessarily associated with clinically apparent cognitive dysfunction and that additional factors, such as neuronal or synaptic loss or widespread cytoskeletal aberrations, are necessary for dementia in AD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinico-pathologic studies in dementia: nondemented subjects with pathologically confirmed Alzheimer's disease.
Howard Crystal,Dennis W. Dickson,P. Fuld,David Masur,R. Scott,Mark F. Mehler,Joseph C. Masdeu,Claudia H. Kawas,Miriam K. Aronson,Leslie Wolfson +9 more
TL;DR: Every subject with numerous cortical neurofibrillary tangles was demented, and the nondemented subjects with Alzheimer pathology may have had “preclinical” AD, or numerous cortical plaques may occur in some elderly subjects who would never develop clinical dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of dementing illnesses in an 80-year-old volunteer cohort.
Robert Katzman,Miriam K. Aronson,Paula A. Fuld,Claudia H. Kawas,Theodore Brown,Hal Morgenstern,William H. Frishman,Lewis I. Gidez,Howard A. Eder,Wee Lock Ooi +9 more
TL;DR: It is possible to identify a large cohort of 80‐year‐olds who are at low risk for AD and a smaller cohort at very high risk, prospectively followed over a 5‐year period.
Journal ArticleDOI
The psychiatric symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.
TL;DR: The authors used a semistructured interview administered to primary family caregivers to assess the prevalence and nature of psychiatric pathology in 175 well‐diagnosed community‐residing Alzheimer's disease patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hippocampal sclerosis : a common pathological feature of dementia in very old (≥80 years of age) humans
Dennis W. Dickson,Peter Davies,C. Bevona,K. H. Van Hoeven,Stephen M. Factor,Ellen Grober,Miriam K. Aronson,Howard Crystal +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that HpScl is a common post-mortem finding in demented, but not normal, elderly subjects and may contribute to, or be a marker for, the increased risk of dementia in subjects with documented cardiovascular disease or a history of myocardial infarction.
