Dementias are neurodegenerative conditions that lead to cognitive and functional decline, leading an individual to complete functional disability in just a few years. There is an estimated prevalence of 50 million people in the world with dementia and this number is expected to triple by 2050. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common dementia found today, and it has a challenging diagn…
The objective of this study is to analyze serum and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers in individuals with mild amnestic cognitive impairment (CCL) and serum biomarkers and brain histological analysis in female APPSWE / PS1DE9 mice in the CCL phase, to better understand the mechanisms of this phase of dementia and seek new possibilities in terms of non-pharmacological treatment. At least 30 p…
The objective of this cross-sectional study consists on the comparative analysis of cerebrospinal fluid and serum biomarkers among controls without dementia, patients with probable dementia with Lewy bodies, and patients with probable Alzheimer's disease dementia, seeking to better discriminate between these dementia syndromes and contrast with people without dementia. At least 26 subject…
Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are a group of neurodegenerative disease that affects the cerebellum, basal ganglia, brainstem and spicocerebellar tracts. The clinical picture of the SCA-3 includes cerebella ataxia, parkinsonism, dystonia, pyramidal signs, peripheral neuropathies and sleep disesase. Studies with cognitive alterations in patients with SCA 3 have demonstrated visuospatial, e…
Este estudo tem por objetivo a análise dos biomarcadores séricos e liquóricos em pacientes com comprometimento cognitivo leve (CCL) amnéstico, a análise dos biomarcadores séricos e a análise histológica encefálica em camundongos fêmeas APPSWE/PS1DE9, na fase de CCL, para melhor compreensão desta fase da demência e buscar novas possibilidades de tratamento não farmacológico. Pelo menos 30 …

This study aims to analyze serum biomarkers and brain histological analysis in female APPSWE/PS1DE9 mice, in the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) phase, after moderate-intensity physical exercise. In this study, at least 120 female APPSWE/PS1DE9 mice and their respective controls will be used, divided into groups: 1) sedentary MCC; 2) Sedentary controls; 3) sedentary MCI and submitted to s…
