Could AI learn to spot warning signs of Alzheimer's disease from electronic health records? Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, funded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) (The National Institutes of Health (NIH), have made strides in predicting Alzheimer's disease using artificial intelligence (AI). By training machine learning algorithms on electronic health records from 749 Alzheimer’s patients and over 250,000 controls, they achieved up to 90% accuracy in forecasting the disease. The study, published in Nature Aging, identified key predictive factors, such as hyperlipidemia and congestive heart failure, which are consistent across both sexes, and others that are gender-specific. Additionally, the research used a specialized search engine to link these factors with genetic markers, highlighting genes like APOE and MS4A6A. This innovative approach offers a blueprint for leveraging AI to enhance our understanding and prediction of Alzheimer's risk.

I am excited to share that I'll present one of my research works on AI for dementia at the AI and Computer Vision for Neurodegenerative Diseases Assessment workshop. The workshop, which Vincenzo Dentamaro will organize, will be held on Nov 24 at King's College, University of Aberdeen. I am eager to see you there for enlightening discussions and the opportunity to explore the intersection of AI for Neurodegenerative Diseases. #AI #Healthcare #NeurodegenerativeDiseases

Groundbreaking research by Moorfields Eye Hospital and University College London has harnessed the power of artificial intelligence to detect subtle indicators of Parkinson's disease within eye scans. Using AI-driven analysis of high-resolution retinal images, researchers have pinpointed anomalies linked to the disease seven years before clinical symptoms appear. By delving into the uncharted territory of "oculomics," this study showcases the potential of eye scans to unveil hidden clues about various neurodegenerative disorders, opening doors to preemptive lifestyle changes that could potentially delay the onset of conditions like Parkinson's. The fusion of AI and oculomics introduces a new era of holistic health insights, positioning the eye as an unexpected yet invaluable gateway to unraveling complex health narratives. #ai #healthcare https://lnkd.in/dbZhEjry

Can AI help with early detection of Alzheimer's? Recent research presented in Nature suggests that machine learning might be able to detect the disease in brain scans with 90% accuracy. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gM84wC9p #AI #Healthcare #Alzheimers

**Exciting Advancement in Parkinson's Diagnosis with AI!** Parkinson's disease symptoms, such as tremors, severe pain comparable to being pricked with a needle, and the risk of falling due to loss of balance, affect 8.5 million people worldwide, with 300,000 deaths annually. This neurodegenerative disorder occurs when waste cells accumulate where dopamine is produced in the brain, leading to the degeneration of healthy cells. Scientists previously identified that certain proteins related to Parkinson's appear in our blood up to seven and a half years before symptoms manifest. Recently, researchers at University College London have developed an AI capable of rapidly detecting these proteins. When tested on over 100 individuals in the United States, the AI predicted that approximately 70 of them would develop Parkinson's in the future. Remarkably, three years later, those predictions proved accurate. This AI diagnostic tool offers a 100% accuracy rate, allowing for early detection and potentially effective intervention to prevent the degeneration of brain cells. This advancement could be a game-changer in managing and treating Parkinson's disease. #ParkinsonsDisease #AI #MedicalResearch #EarlyDetection #HealthcareInnovation

AI + Personalized Precision Medicine is the Future of Medicine.   Alzheimer's Treatment Centers of America (ATCA) only treats Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Cognitive Impairment & brain fog from Long COVID and uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) (down to your DNA) to do that. In the study on our AI protocol, 75% of the patients had NO FURTHER DECLINE in their Mild Cognitive Impairment. These are amazing results.   Our AI System utilizes the immense analytical power of supercomputers to identify patterns, gives automated insights to physicians to improve decision making, streamlines diagnoses, and improves clinical outcomes. ATCA controls the power of these high-tech AI tools through an AI/Human partnership which requires the practitioner to make the final decision.   Please reach out if you’re interested in joining our community to #endalz - Want to learn more about us? https://lnkd.in/e568K-wt   #alzheimers , #dementiacare , #memoryloss and #brainfog from #longcovid John Sherman Gregory Buckley Douglas Collins
