In this study, we aimed to research if the association DM-2 AF favors precocious onset CD.

Abstract Neuroinflammation is closely linked to aging, which damages the structure and function of brain. It caused by intricate interactions immune cells in aged brain, such as dysregulated glial dysfunctional astrocytes. Aging-associated chronic low inflammation, referred neuroinflammaging, shows an upregulated proinflammatory response. Autophagy senescence play crucial roles moderators aging neuroinflammatory responses. The neuroimmune system, dystrophic cells, release factors alter blood-brain barrier, causing a landscape. Chronic inflammation combined with deteriorating neurons exacerbate neurological disorders decline cognitive function. This review highlights neuroinflammaging mechanism associated interplay central nervous system cellular senescence, autophagy regulation brain's under conditions. Moreover, microglia peripheral process brain have also been discussed. Determining treatment targets comprehending mechanisms that influence necessary decrease neuroinflammation.

Dementia remains an underdiagnosed syndrome, and there is a need to improve the early detection of cognitive decline. This narrative review examines role neuropsychological assessment in characterization changes associated with dementia syndrome at different states. The first section describes indicators decline major barriers their identification. Further, optimal screening conditions most widely accepted tests are described. second analyzes main differences performance between Alzheimer’s disease other subtypes dementia. Finally, current challenges aging/dementia future approaches discussed. Essentially, we find that research beginning uncover precede dementia, while continuing refine differential diagnosis neurodegenerative disorders cause However, neuropsychology faces several barriers, including cultural diversity populations, limited implementation public health systems, adaptation technological advances. Nowadays, plays fundamental characterizing stages but more efforts needed develop harmonized procedures facilitate its use clinical contexts protocols.

Published: Jan. 20, 2025

This study examines whether age-related cognitive decline varies by race/ethnicity and how edentulism moderates these effects. Data from the Health Retirement Study (2006-2020), including 23,669 respondents aged 51 above across 189,352 person-wave observations were analyzed. Of all respondents, 13.4% edentulous at baseline, with 65.4% identified as non-Hispanic White, 20.5% Black, 14.18% Hispanic. Results linear mixed-effect models indicated that compared to Whites, Hispanic Black participants exhibited lower baseline cognition scores but slower age. For participants, this rate of was attenuated 0.03 units per year (95% CI: -0.06, -0.01, p = .049). The findings highlighted need for targeted interventions policies improve oral health, particularly populations. Addressing health disparities could help mitigate in group reduce racial/ethnic groups.
