Metabolic syndrome (MetS), a clustering of risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus and
cardiovascular disease, has been associated with cognitive dysfunction and brain abnormalities. …

Frontal lobe dysfunction is thought to be involved in schizophrenia and age-associated cognitive
decline. Frontal lobe volume changes have been investigated in these conditions using …

Neuropathology studies show that patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and
Alzheimer's disease typically have lesions of the entorhinal cortex (EC), hippocampus (Hip), and …

Elevated glucocorticoid levels produce hippocampal dysfunction and correlate with individual
deficits in spatial learning in aged rats. Previously we related persistent cortisol increases …

For 11 AD cases and four normal elderly controls, post mortem volumes of the hippocampal
subdivisions were calculated by using magnetic resonance imaging and histological …

Our goal was to ascertain the involvement of the temporal lobe in the preclinical (not yet
diagnosable) stages of dementia of the Alzheimer’s type (DAT) by using MRI-derived volumes. …

We used MRI volume sampling with coregistered and atrophy corrected FDG-PET scans to
