A systematic review was conducted to synthesises available literature on recent developments in artificial intelligence and neuroimaging for the improvement of diagnosis and prognosis of dementia. *Alzheimers Dement 2023; doi = 10.1002/alz.13412*
This study suggests that default mode network (DMN) in young subjects with genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease may be disrupted. *J Neurol (2023); doi - 10.1007/s00415-023-11809-9*
Broad and specific objects of insight seem to be underpinned by different brain areas in frontotemporal dementia. *NeuroImage-Clinical 24 102066 (2019)*
The T-ADLQ has appropriate psychometric properties and diagnostic utility. It is a highly useful tool to measure functional capacity in everyday tasks in dementia. *Dement Geriatr Cogn Disord 33(6) 362-371 (2012)*
The TYM-S is a valid and reliable instrument to assess cognitive impairment, showing good psychometric properties and diagnostic capacity to identify cases of dementia in a Spanish-speaking older adult cohorts. *Int J Geriatr Psychiatry 29(7) 730-740 (2014)*
The ACE-R-Ch is a valid and reliable instrument to assess cognitive impairment, exhibiting good psychometric properties and diagnostic utility to identify cases of dementia in a Chilean Spanish-speaking cohort of older adults. *Rev Med Chile 140 1006-1013 (2012)*
AD is predominantly characterised by an amnesic syndrome, whereas whereas bvFTD is distinguishible by its profound executive dysfunction and impairment in social cognition. All the same, both types of dementia can present with multi-domain cognitive impairment. Although apathy, depression and anxiety may be common neuropsychiatric symptoms in these dementias, a remarkable change in personality is more characteristic of bvFTD. *JSM Alzheimer’s Dis Related Dementia 3(1) 1-9 (2016)*
The IFS-Ch showed acceptable psychometric properties, supported by evidence of validity and reliability for its use in the measurement of executive functions in patients with dementia. The diagnostic accuracy of the IFS-Ch for detecting dementia patients was also considered acceptable. *Dementia & Neuropsychologia 7(1) 40-47 (2013)*
Both versions of the FCSRT showed an appropriate accuracy to distinguish mild AD patients and controls. Visual cues were easier to recall than verbal cues, especially in the memory impaired patients. *Arch Clin Neuropsychol 31(2) 165-175 (2016)*
