On behalf of the @istaart.bsky.social Design and Data Analytics PIA: New paper in Experimental Gerontology extends principal stratification to estimate the Survivor Average Causal Effect to model heterogeneity in treatment response in gerontologic trials. doi.org/10.1016/j.ex...
Our new paper in Alzheimer’s & Dementia shows that automated item-level fluency features improve classification of semantic vs logopenic PPA. They outperform total scores & align with brain atrophy patterns—supporting scalable disease monitoring. alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Our new paper in Alzheimer’s & Dementia, led by Dr. Grebe, shows that higher education/occupation (cognitive reserve proxies) first support better semantic function in svPPA despite more brain atrophy, but then faster decline as reserve depletes: alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....
Our new paper in Cerebral Circulation – Cognition and Behaviour, led by Sanne Kuipers & Malin Overmars, applies Natural Language Processing to >1k memory clinic letters to study sex differences in documented cognitive features. Read here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
