The early prognosis of high-risk older adults for amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), using noninvasive and sensitive neuromarkers, is key for early prevention of Alzheimer s disease. A recent study, published in the
Journal of Alzheimer s Disease, by researchers at the University of Kentucky establishes what they believe is a new way to predict the risk years before a clinical diagnosis. Their work shows that direct measures of brain signatures during mental activity are more sensitive and accurate predictors of memory decline than current standard behavioral testing. Many studies have measured electrophysiological rhythms during resting and sleep to predict Alzheimer s risk. This study demonstrates that better predictions of a person s cognitive risk can be made when the brain is challenged with a task. Additionally, we learned that out of thousands of possible brain oscillation measures, left-frontal brainwaves during so-called working memory tasks are good p

Ice dams have been breaking as temperatures continue to rise. it is quite a different story here in the northeast, however, which is bracing for its first sub zero windchills and even more snow. it comes after yesterday s blast that shut down schools, cancelled flights and triggered countless accidents. abc s marci gonzalez has the latest. reporter: a white slushy mess across much of the northeast. virginia to new england getting a wallop of winter-like weather with as much as seven inches of snow falling in some areas. i worked in it 35 years in the show, in the airport. so it was horrible. reporter: fred schmitt knows the headaches they were feeling in places like la guardia and kennedy airports all too well. with delays up to an hour and a half there and elsewhere according to flightaware.com. more than 1300 flights cancelled. getting around not much easier on the roads. it was like this basically the whole way. as you get closer to new jersey, the roads got worse, so noth
