Article Abstract
Background: Longitudinal studies investigating cognitive function changes in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) are limited. The variability of cognitive impairment across clinical subtypes of PSP remains unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to compare the longitudinal changes in cognitive function between patients with PSP and Parkinson's disease (PD) and to assess differences in cognitive impairment among PSP subtypes.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted using neuropsychological testing data from patients with PSP and PD admitted to our hospital.
Results: The study included 38 patients with PD and 41 patients with PSP (23 PSP-Richardson's syndrome, 14 PSP-progressive gait freezing (PSP-PGF), 3 PSP-Parkinsonism and 1 PSP-predominant corticobasal syndrome). At baseline, cognitive function was significantly lower in the PSP group than in the PD group. Over 12 months, patients with PSP exhibited significant declines in multiple cognitive domains, whereas no significant changes were observed in the PD group. Among PSP subtypes, PSP-RS showed a faster rate of cognitive decline than PD, while PSP-PGF demonstrated a lower progression than PSP-RS.
Conclusion: PSP is associated with progressive cognitive impairment, with rates of decline varying by subtype. PSP-PGF exhibited a slower progression than PSP-RS. Clinical management should consider subtype-specific differences in cognitive prognosis to tailor treatment and care.

Associations of Chronic Insomnia, Longitudinal Cognitive Outcomes, Amyloid-PET, and White Matter Changes in Cognitively Normal Older Adults.

Background And Objectives: The relationship between insomnia and cognitive decline is poorly understood. We investigated associations between chronic insomnia, longitudinal cognitive outcomes, and brain health in older adults.
Methods: From the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging, we identified cognitively unimpaired older adults with or without a diagnosis of chronic insomnia who underwent annual neuropsychological assessments (z-scored global cognitive scores and cognitive status) and had quantified serial imaging outcomes (amyloid-PET burden [centiloid] and white matter hyperintensities from MRI [WMH, % of intracranial volume]).
Volunteering With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Implications for Subsequent Cognitive Changes.

Background And Objectives: Volunteering has cognitive benefits in later life and has been theorized to protect against Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). A small but growing body of volunteer programs target people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI)-who are presumably at elevated risk for ADRD, but we know surprisingly little about who volunteers with MCI and how volunteering affects their subsequent cognitive changes. The current study sought to address these gaps.

Objectives: In this study, we examined the extent to which older adult social activity participation and perceptions of neighborhoods correspond with risks of cognitive impairment and no dementia (CIND) and dementia.
Methods: We predicted the risk of both CIND and dementia in a series of Cox proportional hazards analyses among older adults across a ten-year period. Utilizing data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS, N = 15,020), we examined whether social activity participation corresponded with reduced risk of CIND and dementia, as well as whether perceptions of neighborhood conditions, social cohesion, and neighborhood disorder moderated the effects of social activity participation.
Preclinical and first-in-human evidence of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid for mitochondrial COQ2 deficiency.

Primary coenzyme Q (CoQ) deficiency is a mitochondrial disorder with variable clinical presentation and limited response to standard CoQ10 supplementation. Recent studies suggest that 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), a biosynthetic precursor of CoQ, may serve as a substrate enhancement treatment in cases caused by pathogenic variants in COQ2, a gene encoding a key enzyme in CoQ biosynthesis. However, it remains unclear whether 4-HBA is required throughout life to maintain health, whether it offers advantages over CoQ10 treatment, and whether these findings are translatable to humans.

September 2025
Vision Transformer (ViT) applied to structural magnetic resonance images has demonstrated success in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, three key challenges have yet to be well addressed: 1) ViT requires a large labeled dataset to mitigate overfitting while most of the current AD-related sMRI data fall short in the sample sizes. 2) ViT neglects the within-patch feature learning, e.
