This will facilitate research on prevention using non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic strategies. There is a concerted effort from governments, regulators, the pharmaceutical industry and investigators to accelerate the pace of therapeutic research through all these stages of AD. Recruiting for therapeutic research will be facilitated by the involvement of persons at risk and patients through “trial ready cohorts”. The increasing use of biomarkers measuring the amount of amyloid and tau pathology in the brain may help to choose the right treatment for the right person at the right stage of disease. In the near future combinations of treatments will be tried, and we need to learn from the fields of infectious disease and cancer about trial design, practice guidelines and costs sharing. National plans will help implement current and future diagnostic and treatment strategies world-wide.

Aspects of the Neuropsychological Development and Assessment of New Zealand Children A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Clinical Psychology at Massey University, Wellington, New Zealand. Kate Sarah Ross-McAlpine 2018 Abstract Typical neuropsychological development in school age children is an under-researched area. There is insufficient research on age effects on performance, relationships between multiple cognitive abilities and between these abilities and academic achievement. In addition to this, there has been no research conducted on neuropsychological assessment practices with children in New Zealand (NZ). This thesis explored patterns of neuropsychological development in typically developing children and provides clarity on the current practices of psychologists conducting neuropsychological assessment with children in NZ. Study 1 explored the age effects on neuropsychological measures for typically developing children aged 6 to 11 years. Firstly, the scaled scores of NZ children were compared with overseas normative groups and found to be within ±0.4 of a standard deviation for all tests except for finger tapping and animal sorting (NEPSY-II). Secondly, age effects were found for all measures of cognitive abilities which is consistent with previous research. Post-hoc findings identified that the most significant improvement occurred between ages 6 and 9 years. The existence of differences between NZ and USA samples, specifically found for animal sorting and finger tapping (NEPSY-II), indicates that New Zealand normative data would be beneficial for some subtests used in neuropsychological assessments.

  • Cognitive Dysfunction in Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders: a Meta-Analysis
    Sleep Research Online 5(1): 13-43, 2003 1096-214X http://www.sro.org/2003/Fulda/13/ © 2003 WebSciences Printed in the USA. All rights reserved. Cognitive Dysfunction in Sleep-related Breathing Disorders: A Meta-analysis Stephany Fulda* and Hartmut Schulz** *Krankenhaus der Barmherzigen Brüder, München, Germany **Department of Neurology, Helios Klinikum Erfurt, Erfurt, Germany Sleep related breathing disorders (SRBD) are usually associated with impaired daytime functioning. The magnitude of this impairment might vary for different neuropsychological functions. Our objective was to assess cognitive dysfunction in SRBD patients. Different medical and psychological databases (Evidence Based Medicine, Medline, Embase, PsychInfo, PsychLit, The Eric Database, BiblioSleep) were searched (last search, December 2000). The reference lists of articles were checked and several journals and conference proceedings were hand-searched. All observational studies comparing patients with an established diagnosis of SRBD to non-sleep disordered control groups, to clinical control groups, or to population norms on neuropsychological or psychometric performance measures, including computer-assisted tests and driving simulators. We rated the quality of each study according to criteria of external validity, internal validity, statistical validity, and the level of evidence. Outcome measures were classified according to a taxonomy of neuropsychological functions and statistically analyzed using meta-analytical techniques. Fifty-four studies reporting cognitive functioning of SRBD patients were reviewed. A total of 1,635 patients were compared with 1,737 control subjects. Twenty-eight studies provided adequate statistics and were integrated further. SRBD patients showed moderate to large reductions in mental flexibility, visual delayed- memory retrieval, and driving simulation performance (pooled effect size estimates ranged from 0.61 to 0.72).

  • A New Software for Rehabilitation Using Touch-Screen Technology
    Sede Amministrativa: Università degli Studi di Padova Dipartimento di Psicologia Generale CORSO DI DOTTORATO DI RICERCA IN SCIENZE PSICOLOGICHE CICLO XXIX New frontiers in neuropsychology. The Padua Rehabilitation Tool: a new software for rehabilitation using touch-screen technology Coordinatore: Ch.mo Prof. Francesca Peressotti Supervisore: Ch.mo Prof. Daniela Mapelli Co-Supervisore: Ch.mo Prof. Luciano Gamberini Dottorando: Stefano Cardullo Summary Recently, the advancement and the development of new technologies is shaping and establishing new frontiers in neuropsychological rehabilitation. In particular, the use of touchscreen technology, together with the use of mobile devices, is giving new opportunities for the development of innovative programs of rehabilitation tailored to the specific needs of patients. The touchscreen technology allows to go beyond some limits of classic paper and pencil exercise including the possibility for patients of practice rehabilitation outside clinic in a personalized manner and controlled by remote by the clinician. The overview of software for rehabilitation today is wide, but the poor availability of such software for Italian population and specifically designed for people with cognitive impairments, some years ago, led me to the development of the first mobile devices’ software for cognitive rehabilitation. The aim of this dissertation is to describe the development process and the efficacy evaluation of this software, the Padua Rehabilitation Tool (PRT). Initially will be described and analyzed the base for every cognitive intervention: the plasticity of brain. Today, we know that the brain has the ability to undergo functional and structural alterations in response to internal and external environmental changes, including cognitive interventions. Moreover, I will discuss the use of technology and computerized training for rehabilitation.
