Summary: PET imaging plays an essential role in the earlier and more specific diagnoses of dementia syndromes, especially with the development of pathology-specific disease-modifying therapy for Alzheimer disease. Amyloid and tau PET techniques have entered clinical use, making nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists crucial members of the care team. This review discusses recent changes in the understanding of dementia and examines the roles of nuclear medicine imaging in clinical practice.

Summary: This study compared an antibody-based PET ligand with C-11-PiB for the detection of nonfibrillar A beta in Alzheimer disease mouse models. The results showed that the antibody-based ligand could detect changes in brain A beta levels after anti-A beta therapy, while C-11-PiB was unable to quantify the decreased A beta levels.

Summary: FXTAS is a rare movement disorder caused by a 55-to-200 CGG-trinucleotide expansion premutation in the FMR1 gene, with core diagnostic criteria of tremor, ataxia, and T2-weighted hyperintensity of the middle cerebellar peduncles on MRI. The pathophysiology of FXTAS is largely unknown, with possible overlap with Alzheimer disease according to some animal models and neuropathology findings.

Summary: Impaired endolysosomal integrity plays a crucial role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) complex acts as a proteotoxic receptor that binds to amyloid beta (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated MAPT/Tau (p-MAPT/Tau), leading to endolysosomal dysfunction and subsequent neurodegeneration. The identification of HYAL as a suppressor of endolysosomal dysfunction provides potential therapeutic targets for AD treatment. Additionally, the interaction between hyaluronic acid (HA) and its receptor CD44 may alleviate neurotoxicity in affected neurons via V-ATPase.

Summary: Higher levels of occupational complexity are associated with better baseline cognition. However, the cognitive benefit of intervention did not vary significantly among participants with different levels of occupational complexity, except for occupational complexity related to data being associated with gains in executive function.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of four novel data-driven metrics against conventional techniques for quantifying amyloid-beta (Aβ) pathology. The results showed that the Aβ load, Aβ index, and CLNMF metrics can provide comparable performance to established quantification methods. These new metrics may offer more precise alternatives and further studies in larger cohorts should be conducted.

Summary: This study assessed multiple methods for determining an optimal cutoff for F-18-AZD4694 PET positivity, with good convergence among different approaches. The findings suggest that a threshold of 1.55 SUVR may have reliable discriminative accuracy for amyloid-beta positivity on PET imaging.

Summary: The amyloid cascade hypothesis for Alzheimer's disease has faced challenges due to inconsistent clinical benefits of drugs targeting amyloid beta peptide. It is important to conduct intervention studies in cognitively unimpaired individuals at risk for dementia to further evaluate the hypothesis.

Summary: The autophagy-lysosome axis is crucial for the clearance of MAPT aggregates, with dysfunction of the central retromer component VPS35 leading to impaired autophagic resolution and accumulation of cytoplasmic MAPT aggregates. Maintaining the integrity of the retromer complex regulates the autophagy-lysosome axis to suppress MAPT aggregation and propagation.

Summary: The study compared the validity of various cognitive and functional markers in predicting incident dementia among elderly with memory loss. Results showed that the Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test-Free Recall (FCSRT-FR) score had the highest predictive value, along with other cognitive scores, while some other markers like Mini-Mental State Examination did not significantly predict dementia occurrence.

Summary: This study examines the dose-response relationship in multidomain interventions for dementia prevention and finds that the optimal dose is about half of the potentially available sessions. Factors such as gender, age, frailty, education level, and dementia risk influence individuals' response to the dose.

Summary: This study compared I-123-FP-CIT SPECT imaging obtained from a 360 degrees CZT camera with different focus configurations to that from a conventional Anger camera. The results showed that the 360 degrees CZT camera provided higher image quality, shorter acquisition times, and fewer discordant cases compared to the conventional camera, possibly due to its higher spatial resolution.

Summary: This review provides an update on the results from 2018 and advances the characterization of TSPO imaging in Alzheimer's disease (AD) by re-examining TSPO function and expression. Although the biological basis of the TSPO PET signal is clearly related to microglia and astrocytes in AD, the exact process remains uncertain and may not be directly associated with neuroinflammation. Further studies are needed to explore the cellular significance underlying variations in the PET signal in AD.

Summary: This study aimed to examine older adults' engagement with a digital health intervention and its associations with changes in cardiovascular and dementia risk factors. The findings showed that higher engagement was associated with greater improvement in risk factors. However, individuals with limited computer experience, lower education levels, or poorer cognition tended to have lower engagement.

Summary: This study pooled individual participant data from two multidomain intervention trials and found that these interventions did not reduce the risk of global cognitive decline, symptoms of depression, or apathy in the overall older population. However, in individuals with lower baseline cognitive functioning, the intervention groups showed less decline in cognitive function. Extended follow-up for dementia occurrence is important to understand the potential long-term effects of multidomain interventions.
