APOE-ε4 risk variant for Alzheimer's disease modifies the association between cognitive performance and cerebral morphology in healthy middle-aged individuals
Neuroimage: ClinicalAbstractThe APOE-ε4 genotype is the highest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). In cognitively unimpaired individuals, it has been related to altered brain morphology, function and earlier...

Centiloid cut-off values for optimal agreement between PET and CSF core AD biomarkers
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: The Centiloid scale has been developed to standardize measurements of amyloid PET imaging. Reference cut-off values of this continuous measurement enable the consistent operationalization...

Spatial patterns of white matter hyperintensities associated with Alzheimer's disease risk factors in a cognitively healthy middle-aged cohort
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: White matter hyperintensities (WMH) of presumed vascular origin have been associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study aims to describe the patterns of WMH...

The SCD-Well randomized controlled trial: Effects of a mindfulness-based intervention versus health education on mental health in patients with subjective cognitive decline (SCD)
Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical InterventionsAbstractIntroduction: Subjectively experienced cognitive decline in older adults is an indicator of increased risk for dementia and is also associated with increased levels of anxiety symptoms. As anxiety is...

Brain and cognitive correlates of subjective cognitive decline-plus features in a population-based cohort
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) consists of self-perceived decline in cognition over time. The occurrence of specific additional features in SCD (so-called SCDplus) confers a higher...

Distinct Cognitive and Brain Morphological Features in Healthy Subjects Unaware of Informant-Reported Cognitive Decline
Journal of Alzheimer's DiseaseAbstractBackground: Subtle cognitive decline preceding cognitive impairment can be self-perceived, referred to as subjective cognitive decline (SCD), or go unrecognized. Objective: To study the clinical...

Impact of APOE genetic variant on brain morphology in a cohort of cognitively healthy middle-aged individuals with enriched genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer's DementiaAbstractIntroduction: Apolipoprotein E (APOE)-ε4 is the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. However, the dose-dependent impact of this allele on brain morphology of healthy individuals remains...

Episodic Memory and Executive Function in cognitively Healthy Individuals Display Distinct Neuroanatomical Correlates which are Differentially Modulated by Aging
Human Brain MappingAbstractThe neuroanatomical bases of episodic memory (EM) and executive functions (EFs) have been widely addressed in patients with brain damage and in individuals with neurologic disorders. These studies...

Effects of APOE-ε4 allele load on brain morphology in a cohort of middle-aged healthy individuals with enriched genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's & DementiaAbstractIntroduction: Apolipoprotein E (APOE)-ε4 is the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. However, the dose-dependent impact of this allele on brain morphology of healthy individuals remains...

White matter microstructure is altered in cognitively normal middle-aged APOE-ε4 homozygotes
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: The ε4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE-ε4) is the strongest genetic factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease. During middle age, cognitively healthy APOE-ε4 carriers already...
