Article Abstract

Neurological conditions are the leading cause of disability and mortality combined, demanding innovative, scalable, and sustainable solutions. Brain health has become a global priority with adoption of the World Health Organization's Intersectoral Global Action Plan in 2022. Simultaneously, rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) are revolutionizing neurological research and practice. This scoping review of 66 original articles explores the value of AI in neurology and brain health, systematizing the landscape for emergent clinical opportunities and future trends across the care trajectory: prevention, risk stratification, early detection, diagnosis, management, and rehabilitation. AI's potential to advance personalized precision neurology and global brain health directives hinges on resolving core challenges across four pillars-models, data, feasibility/equity, and regulation/innovation-through concerted pursuit of targeted recommendations. Paramount actions include swift, ethical, equity-focused integration of novel technologies into clinical workflows, mitigating data-related issues, counteracting digital inequity gaps, and establishing robust governance frameworks balancing safety and innovation.

Article Synopsis
  • A study evaluated the impacts of divalproex sodium on brain volumes in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease using MRI scans over 24 months.
  • The results indicated that participants receiving divalproex experienced a significantly higher decline in hippocampal and brain volumes compared to those on placebo, along with a faster decline in cognitive function as measured by the Mini-Mental State Examination.
  • The findings suggest that divalproex treatment is linked to accelerated brain volume loss and potentially increased cognitive impairment, although the long-term effects remain unclear.

Article Synopsis
  • The study tested whether divalproex sodium (valproate) could prevent or delay agitation and psychosis in individuals with moderate Alzheimer's disease, enrolling 313 participants.
  • After two years of treatment, results showed no significant difference between the valproate and placebo groups regarding the time to development of agitation or psychosis.
  • Additionally, the valproate group experienced more side effects and showed greater reductions in brain volume, indicating potential adverse effects of the treatment.
