Relation of long-term patterns in caregiving activity and depressive symptoms to telomere length in older women
PsychoneuroendocrinologyAbstractBackground: Research links psychological stress to accelerated cellular aging. Here we examined whether long-term patterns of depression and caregiving burden, forms of chronic psychological stress... -
The rationale behind the new Alzheimer’s disease conceptualization: lessons learned during the last decades
Journal of Alzheimer's DiseaseAbstractIn the last decades, progress in neuroimaging techniques and cerebrospinal fluid assays has enabled the characterization of several Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers. This knowledge has shifted the... -
