Study found that Aβ and tau PET positivity in cognitively unimpaired individuals was associated with near-term progression to mild cognitive impairment and, among those who do not show such categorical change, longitudinal cognitive decline. ja.ma/3OLjqF4

1/3 New lab paper suggesting, in 4 independent cohorts of cognitively unimpaired individuals, that the presence of both amyloid and tau-PET positivity is associated with near-term #AlzheimersDisease clinical progression. Strong support for the NIA-AA preclinical research criteria

Our most important clinical paper so far. In the @prevent_ad, 60% of our cognitively unimpaired participants with amyoid and tau PET binding developed MCI in ~2 years, a number that increased to 80% in those with hippocampal atrophy. The findings are replicated in 3 cohorts.

New paper from the lab suggesting that vascular risk factors are associated with a decline in resting-state functional connectivity over time in the @prevent_ad cohort. Vascular risk factors should really be more targeted for healthy aging and AD prevention.
