Ambien (Zolpidem), a sleeping pill, was studied to see its effects on the brain. Learn to think twice before reaching for a sleeping pill – while you can still think clearly.
Newer blood tests accurately predict Alzheimer’s. This opens the door to earlier detection and treatment. Be cautious: only taking these tests with guidance from a medical expert.
Learn about 2025’s newly approved or potential Alzheimer’s drugs. These include Leqembi, Kisunla, Remternetug, Semaglutide, Trontinemab and Bepranemab.
Leqembi and Kisunla are the new Alzheimer’s immunotherapies. A loss of brain volume associated with these immunotherapies may be caused by the removal of amyloid plaques, rather than the loss of neurons or brain tissue. A new study sheds light on what’s going on.
A trio of key studies identified predictors of dementia risk, the benefits of detecting cognitive impairment early and identified barriers to routine cognitive screening in older adults, such as cost. See their recommendations.
How much protection can frequent spatial processing tasks offer against Alzheimer’s? Researchers in The British Medical Journal investigate.
A new study shows ultrasound improves memory even when amyloid plaque levels don’t improve. (Amyloid is the culprit behind Alzheimer’s.) Could ultrasound be the missing piece in the Alzheimer’s puzzle?
Ketones are a backup source of energy for neurons. Now, exciting research reveals bigger news: Ketone esters help clear misfolded proteins in animal models of aging and Alzheimer’s.
