Automated quantification of white matter hyperintensity confluence: A measure of spatial organisation beyond volume and visual rating scales

This paper introduces an automated method to quantify white matter hyperintensity confluence, showing it correlates with cognitive performance and dementia subtypes beyond volume.

SMAS: Structural MRI-Based AD Score using Bayesian VAE

This paper introduces SMAS, a Bayesian VAE-based AD score from structural MRI data, showing strong correlations with cognitive decline and brain atrophy markers, and outperforming existing measures in predicting AD.

Fornix fractional anisotropy mediates the association between Mediterranean diet adherence and memory four years later in older adults without dementia

The paper examines if fractional anisotropy of the fornix mediates the link between Mediterranean diet adherence and verbal memory decline in older adults over four years.

Lifelong musical activity is associated with multi-domain cognitive and brain benefits in older adults

This study finds that lifelong musical activity is linked to better cognitive abilities and preserved brain structure in older adults, suggesting it may enhance cognitive resilience.

Individualized Gaussian Process-based Prediction of Memory Performance and Biomarker Status in Ageing and Alzheimer's disease

The paper uses Gaussian process multikernel modeling to predict memory performance and CSF biomarkers in ageing and Alzheimer's disease using MRI and other data.

Memorability of photographs in subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment: implications for cognitive assessment

The paper assesses memorability of photographs in healthy controls, subjective cognitive decline, and mild cognitive impairment, identifying images with diagnostic potential.
