Varied effects of age-related neuropathologies on the trajectory of late life cognitive decline
The objective of this study was to examine whether the effects of age-related
neuropathologies on cognition change over time. Participants were 1096 deceased persons …

To what degree is late life cognitive decline driven by age-related neuropathologies?
The ageing brain is vulnerable to a wide array of neuropathologies. Prior work estimated
that the three most studied of these, Alzheimer's disease, infarcts, and Lewy bodies, account …

Age and the association of dementia-related pathology with trajectories of cognitive decline
The association of dementia-related pathologies with cognition is hypothesized to decrease
as age advances. We examined this in 413 persons without cognitive impairment at …

Residual decline in cognition after adjustment for common neuropathologic conditions.
Objective: Neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular conditions are common in old age and
are associated with cognitive decline. However, considerable heterogeneity remains in …

body disease accumulate in the brains of older persons with and without dementia, but the …
