Extra from W6 Flashcards
what are the 3 themes for the CCNA?
prevention
treatment and secondary prevention
quality of life
what is the purpose of the knowledge translation and exchange?
to explain what is being done in everday words
what is the basic foundation of CCNA research?
neuroimaging- national standardized MRI dementia protocol
what is the canadian version of FINGER?
CAN-THUMBS UP: prevention study for persons at risk of dementia
what is used as a general data collection?
LORIS
what are the 2 spectra of ADRD?
AD (SCI, MCI, AD) and LBD (PD, PD-MCI, PDD, LBD)
what is the goal of T9 biomarker and RA research?
characterize and discriminate phenotype heterogeneity
- detect early markers
- differentiate clinical groups with biomarkers and RF
- monitor and predict clinical progression
contribute to identifying secondary phenotypes (detected) - trajectories toward and away from AD
contribute to biomarkers for prevention trials
- synergic, can thumbs up
emphasis on precision, generalizability and representation
focus on modern approaches and new technologies
what are the seven dimensions of biomarker and risk factors that influence NDD?
intensity
evidence
complexity - multiple dimensions
interactive
general/precision
dynamic
risk/protection
who was the lead for women, sex, gender and dementia?
Dr gillian einstein
what was the goal of Einstein?
work with CCNA to ensure sex and gender research questions will be studied across spectrum in human and animal
why is it important to learn about sex and gender differences?
the interaction is critical for developing interventions for both prevention and treatment of ND
what is the role of CCNA in WSGD?
monitor sex and gender
-> support and encourage all researchers to consider sex and gender differences in aging, cognition, dementia, dementia care and caregiving (review manuscripts)
- highlight and advocate
what are the emerging notes about WSGD?
- globally mixed results about W>M
- rf vary in 4 ways:
same frequency, diff effect (APOE4 and 2)
same effect, diff freq (ed, smoking, exercise)
both diff freq and effect (head trauma)
restricted to W or M (oophorectomy, prostate cancer) - menopause (early is a rf)
-> ovary removed before 40 have greater risk for AD
40-45 = slightly greater risk bc of estrogen
what is the ICHP?
indigenous cognitive health program
what is the purpose of ICHP?
building capacity to support respectful and safe dementia research partnerships
-> culturally safe
