Effects of Physical Activity Training in Patients with Alzheimer’s Dementia: Results of a Pilot RCT Study
Vjera Holthoff,Kira Marschner,Maria Scharf,Julius Steding,Shirin Meyer,Rainer Koch,Markus Donix +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that PA in a home-based setting might be an effective and intrinsically attractive way to promote PA training in AD and modulate caregiver burden.
Cardiovascular Risk and Hippocampal Thickness in Alzheimer’s Disease
Markus Donix,Maria Scharf,Kira Marschner,Annett Werner,Cathrin Sauer,Antje Gerner,Josef A. Nees,Shirin Meyer,Katharina L. Donix,Rüdiger von Kummer,Vjera Holthoff +10 more
TL;DR: Greater cardiovascular risk was associated with cortical thinning in the hippocampus CA2/3/dentate gyrus area but not other hippocampal and medial temporal subregions, and APOE genotype, a family history of Alzheimer's disease, and age did not influence cortical thickness.
Functional imaging during recognition of personally familiar faces and places in Alzheimer's disease.
Markus Donix,Markus Donix,Luisa Jurjanz,Shirin Meyer,Eva C. Amanatidis,Damaris Baeumler,Thomas Huebner,Katrin Poettrich,Michael N. Smolka,Vjera Holthoff,Vjera Holthoff +10 more
TL;DR: Alzheimer's disease patients show better everyday functioning in a familiar setting, but they have a reduced ability to access contextual details and episodes associated with a familiar person or environment, which suggests a dysfunction in the neural networks associated with stimulus identification.

Glioblastoma multiforme presenting as postpartum depression: a case report.
Johannes Petzold,Emanuel Severus,Shirin Meyer,Michael Bauer,Dirk Daubner,Dietmar Krex,Tareq A. Juratli +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is added to the evidence that postpartum depression may have organic causes in some cases, a fact that needs to be considered in the clinical setting.
Visual Personal Familiarity in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment
Luisa Jurjanz,Markus Donix,Markus Donix,Eva C. Amanatidis,Shirin Meyer,Katrin Poettrich,Thomas Huebner,Damaris Baeumler,Michael N. Smolka,Vjera Holthoff,Vjera Holthoff +10 more
TL;DR: Changes in a frontal cortical network associated with knowledge-based personal familiarity among patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment could contribute to deficits in social cognition and may reduce the patients' ability to transition from basic to complex situations and tasks.
