Cognitive impairment determination apparatus, cognitive impairment determination system and program

Cerebral blood flow data during cognitive task execution is measured using a functional near infrared spectroscopy method, then characteristic amount extraction is performed after performing primitive analysis on the measured cerebral blood flow data. Then, by using the extracted characteristic amounts and a pre-built model for employing in determination of cognitive impairment, automatic determination is made into clinical diagnostic groups of normal (NC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). It is thereby possible to perform cognitive impairment determination that is suitable for mass early stage screening of elderly people.

Csf biomarker dilution factor corrections by mri imaging and algorithm

A method is disclosed for providing a correcting factor for the dilution of measurements of at least one biomarker in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The method comprises providing semi-automated measurements of the ventricular system by MRI scans using quantitative anatomical protocols, determining a measurement of biomarker levels in CSF that has been extracted, correcting the measurement of the level of said at least one biomarker according to the ventricular size, and providing a corrected result of the measurement determined in step (b), said corrected result accounting for concentration dilution due to the change in ventricular size. The method is particularly suited for the measurement of all biomarkers found in the CSF, such as those associated with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease.

Methods, Kits and Reagents for Diagnosing, Alding Diagnosis and/or Monitoring Progression of a Neurological Disorder

The present inventors have identified a panel of biomarkers present in a biological sample of an individual (e.g. blood, including serum or plasma) whose concentrations or levels are altered in individuals with a neurological disorder. Accordingly, changes in the level of any one or more of these biomarkers can be used to assess cognitive function, to diagnose or aid in the diagnosis of a neurological disorder and / or to monitor a neurological disorder in a patient (e.g., tracking disease progression in a patient and / or tracking the effect of medical or surgical therapy in the patient). Changes in the level of any one or more of these biomarkers can also be used to stratify a patient (i.e., sorting an individual with a probable diagnosis of a neurological disorder or diagnosed with a neurological disorder into different classes of the disorder) and diagnosing or aiding in the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) as well as diagnosing or aiding in the diagnosis of cognitive impairment.
