Crystal M. Glover, PhD, explores ways to help promote healthy brain aging and prevent the onset of Alzheimer's. The panel shares what they are optimistic about in the future of Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis and care. Simple strategies, such as simplifying screening language, can help practitioners meet patients where they are. Annual wellness visits are an important strategy to increase early detection because these visits are covered by Medicare. Julie Zissimopoulos, PhD, highlights population-level data on the burden of late diagnosis in the United States. Payton White discusses successful strategies to help increase awareness of the increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease. Short-term solutions, such as telehealth, may reduce barriers, but long-term policy solutions are needed. Uncovered a concerning link between being a "night owl" and cognitive decline—but with an unexpected twist Monique Nugent, MD, MPH, explores key access issues that are driving disparities in Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis. Panelists discuss the importance of cultural-specific data to improve detection and diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Clinical trial reveals that high-intensity aerobic exercise and low-intensity stretching routines protect cognitive function. The new test is less invasive than previous testing options and will increase accessibility of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. The ABCA7 gene is associated with a significantly higher risk of Alzheimer's disease in African American adults. "It arises from an ageist assumption of frailty, incompetence, and dependence." This research suggests monitoring pulse rate complexity may help identify older adults at higher risk of cognitive decline. Comorbidities that impact sleep, such as obstructive sleep apnea, may contribute to higher rates of Alzheimer’s disease. Access to green spaces, healthcare, social activities, and community resources play a critical role in managing the disease. Sleep quality and Alzheimer's disease have a bidirectional relationship. The study demonstrates a strong association between metabolic syndrome and young-onset dementia. A new large-scale study suggests that statins may significantly reduce the risk of developing dementia,.
