Abstract
ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION: Depressive symptoms are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but their neurobiological and neuropsychological correlates remain poorly understood. We investigate if depressive symptoms are associated with amyloid (Aβ) pathology and cognition in predementia AD.
METHODS: We included Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD, n= 160) and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI, n=192) from the Dementia Disease Initiation cohort. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15). Aβ pathology was determined using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aβ42/40 ratio. Associations between depressive symptoms and cognition were assessed with logistic regression.
RESULTS: Only the Aβ negative MCI group (MCI-Aβ-) was associated with depressive symptoms (OR=2.65, p=.005). Depressive symptoms were associated with worse memory in MCI-Aβ- (OR=0.94, p=.039), but with better performance in MCI-Aβ+ (OR=1.103, p=.001).
DISCUSSION: Our results suggest that depressive symptoms in MCI are neither associated with Aβ pathology, nor AD-associated memory impairment. However, memory impairment in non-AD MCI may relate to depressive symptoms.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
