  • The diagnosis of dementia due to Alzheimer's disease

    Open AccessGuy M Mckhann, David S Knopman et al.ARTICLEAlzheimer's & Dementia2011

    The National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association charged a workgroup with the task of revising the 1984 criteria for Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. The workgroup sought to ensure that the revised criteria would be flexible enough to be used by both general healthcare providers without access to neuropsychological testing, advanced imaging, and cerebrospinal fluid measures, and specialized investigators involved in research or i…

  • Bathing as a Potential Target for Disability Reduction in the Oldest Old

    Daniel J Berlau, Maria M Corrada et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2011References: 5

    We know that functional disability increases with age, but the magnitude of specific limitations is still largely unknown in the oldest old (those aged 90 years or older). The 90+ Study, a population-based study of aging, examined disability in activities of daily living (ADLs; defined as bathing, dressing, feeding, toileting, walking, and transferring in and out of a bed or chair),1 in the oldest old, the fastest growing age group in the United …

  • Projections of Alzheimer's disease in the United States and the public health impact of delaying disease onset

    Ron Brookmeyer, S Gray et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1998Cited by: 17References: 44

    OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to project the future prevalence and incidence of Alzheimer's disease in the United States and the potential impact of interventions to delay disease onset. METHODS: The numbers of individuals in the United States with Alzheimer's disease and the numbers of newly diagnosed cases that can be expected over the next 50 years were estimated from a model that used age-specific incidence rates summarized from seve…

  • Age-Associated Changes in Specific Errors on the Benton Visual Retention Test

    Susan M Resnick, K M Trotman et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…1995

    While total errors on the Benton Visual Retention Test (BVRT) are known to increase in normal aging, there is little information on changes for specific error types. We examined the differential increase in seven specific error categories for 2,000 participants in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. Cross-sectional analyses indicated that all errors increased with age, but differences between age groups in error profiles suggested relative…
