Loss of motor function in preclinical Alzheimer's disease

Open access
Buchman, Aron S, Bennett, David A·2011·Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics

Abstract

Accumulating evidence suggests that Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a long preclinical phase, during which time its characteristic pathology accumulates and patient function declines, but symptoms are insufficient to warrant a clinical diagnosis of dementia. There have been increasing reports of noncognitive symptoms, including loss of motor function, reported to be associated with incident AD. To understand the link between motor function and preclinical AD, this article examines: our understanding of motor function and its clinical assessment in cohort studies; the relationship of motor function and loss of cognition in older persons; risk factors for cognitive and motor decline; and the relation of post-mortem indices of AD and motor function prior to death. Together, these data suggest that age-related cognitive and motor decline may share a common causation. Furthermore, individuals with a clinical diagnosis of AD may represent the 'tip of the iceberg', since AD pathology may also account for a substantial proportion of cognitive and motor dysfunction currently considered 'normal aging' in older persons without dementia. Thus, AD may have a much larger impact on the health and wellbeing of our aging population.

  • Neuropsychiatric symptoms, alongside behavioral disorders, deficits in locomotor activity, and changes in reflex and sensory function, precede cognitive deficits in AD.

    “Moreover, neuropsychiatric symptoms, alongside behavioral disorders, deficits in locomotor activity, and changes in reflex and sensory function, precede cognitive deficits in AD (Albers et al., 2015; Buchman and Bennett, 2011; Cortes et al., 2018).”

    From Arbovirus infection increases the risk for the development of neurodegenerative disease pathology in the murine model (2024) · cites this paper as Buchman and Bennett, 2011

    The Motor performances section (page unavailable) says motor decline in cognitively intact people can precede cognitive impairment by several years. The Odor identification section links impaired smell identification with later MCI and cognitive decline. Our copy does not establish that neuropsychiatric symptoms, behavioral disorders, or reflex changes precede cognitive deficits; its reference to “noncognitive behaviors” does not specify those conditions.

This study found that higher levels of social engagement in older individuals were associated with a slower rate of motor decline. Thus, motor and cognitive decline may share similar risk factors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
