  1. Increased intraindividual variability in reaction time performance is associated with emerging cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired adults

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 60 out of 100. Neuropsychology 2023-11-16 Cognitive tests and assessment

    Increased variability in monthly RT may reflect subtle EF deficits and provide unique information about short-term cognitive decline in preclinical Alzheimer's disease.

  2. Glial reaction in aging and Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Microscopy research and technique 1998-10-01 Biomarkers

    It is well-established that glial cells play an important role during injury and neurodegenerative processes in the central nervous system.

  3. Glial reaction in the hippocampal formation is highly correlated with aging in human brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 1997-10-01 Biomarkers

    Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a biochemical marker of astrocytes and glial reaction, was quantified by immunoblotting in different brain areas from 33 non-demented patients with a Mini Mental State Examination score above 26 and aged from 12 to 98 years.

  4. Two types of Alzheimer neurofibrillary tangles may be found in the hippocampus in senile dementia of the Alzheimer type.
