FUNCTIONAL OUTCOME PREDICTORS IN NORMAL AGING, MCI AND AD

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 这是一项纵向研究，调查轻度认知功能障碍（MCI）的结构性结局预测因素。 进行了三次扫描，所有受试者在扫描1时报告为正常。 通过随访（扫描2），一些受试者已转化为MCI，而其他受试者保持正常。 进行第三次扫描，此时一些受试者已经进展为阿尔茨海默病（AD），而其他受试者恢复/保持正常。 这个项目正在寻找海马体积作为从MCI到AD转换的预测因子

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. This is a longitudinal study investigating structural outcome predictors of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Three scans were performed with all subjects reported as normal at scan 1. By follow-up (scan 2) some subjects had converted to MCI while others remained normal. A third scan was performed and at this point some subjects had progressed to Alzheimer's disease (AD) while others returned to/remained normal. This project is looking at hippocampal volume as a predictor of conversion from MCI to AD
