Study to Understand Novel Biomarkers in Researching Dementia
NCT06547099
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationships between amyloid, tau, and neurodegeneration biomarkers in the blood and the presence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, clinical cognitive decline, and diagnosis. We aim to understand how well blood-based biomarkers can diagnose and predict Alzheimer's disease, which will help to further develop and validate blood tests for the disease.

A Multi-Modal Combination Intervention to Promote Cognitive Function in Older Intensive Care Unit Survivors
NCT06411561
Recruiting
Up to 25% of intensive care unit (ICU) survivors experience cognitive impairment comparable in severity to mild Alzheimer's disease and related dementias after hospital discharge. Older ICU survivors (ages 60 and older) are at highest risk for delirium and subsequent cognitive impairment, which contribute to higher risk for cognitive decline related to Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Sleep and activity are essential for recovery from critical illness, yet ICU survivors experience both... Read More

The Active Mind Trial: An Adaptive Randomized Trial to Improve Function and Delay Dementia
NCT04171323
Recruiting
Older adults at risk for dementia show a variety of cognitive deficits, which can be ameliorated by different cognitive training (CT) exercises. The best combination of CT exercises is unknown. The aim is to discover the most efficacious combination of CT exercises as compared to cognitive stimulation (which will serve as a stringent, active control) to modify the functional trajectories of older adults' with MCI, who are at high risk for dementia. The primary objective of the U01 phase was to d... Read More
