Specific measures of executive function predict cognitive decline in older adults.
Lindsay R. Clark,Dawn M. Schiehser,Gali H. Weissberger,David P. Salmon,Dean C. Delis,Mark W. Bondi +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that some executive function measures requiring inhibition and switching provide predictive utility of subsequent global cognitive decline independent of episodic memory and may further facilitate early detection of dementia.

Eva Pirogovsky,Dawn M. Schiehser,Kristalyn M. Obtera,Mathes M. Burke,Stephanie Lessig,David D. Song,Irene Litvan,J. Vincent Filoteo +7 more
TL;DR: Although impairment in performance-based measures is associated with cognitive status in PD, IADLs may be a separate domain of functioning from cognitive functioning in PD-MCI as these measures did not correlate with performance on the neuropsychological measures.

Peter J. Colvonen,Lisa H. Glassman,Laura D. Crocker,Melissa M. Buttner,Henry J. Orff,Dawn M. Schiehser,Sonya B. Norman,Niloofar Afari +7 more
TL;DR: A systematic PRISMA‐informed review of 20 studies examined biomarkers as predictors of evidence‐based PTSD psychotherapy outcomes to provide preliminary evidence that specific structural and functional neural systems, glucocorticoid sensitivity and metabolism, and heart rate predicted positive response to PTSD treatment.
