APOE-ε4 Shapes the Cerebral Organization in Cognitively Intact Individuals as Reflected by Structural Gray Matter Networks
Cereb CortexAbstractGray matter networks (GMn) provide essential information on the intrinsic organization of the brain and appear to be disrupted in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Apolipoprotein E (APOE)-ε4 represents the...

Earliest amyloid and tau deposition modulate the influence of limbic networks during closed-loop hippocampal down-regulation
BrainAbstractResearch into hippocampal self-regulation abilities may help determine the clinical significance of hippocampal hyperactivity throughout the pathophysiological continuum of Alzheimer's disease. In...

Association between insomnia and cognitive performance, gray matter volume, and white matter microstructure in cognitively unimpaired adults
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: Mounting evidence links poor sleep quality with a higher risk of late-life dementia. However, the structural and cognitive correlates of insomnia are still not well understood. The study...

White matter hyperintensities mediate gray matter volume and processing speed relationship in cognitively unimpaired participants
Human Brain MappingAbstractWhite matter hyperintensities (WMH) have been extensively associated with cognitive impairment and reductions in gray matter volume (GMv) independently. This study explored whether WMH lesion volume...

Prediction of amyloid pathology in cognitively unimpaired individuals using voxel-wise analysis of longitudinal structural brain MRI
Alzheimer's Research & TherapyAbstractBackground: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has unveiled specific alterations at different stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathophysiologic continuum constituting what has been established as "AD...

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...

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...
