Abstract
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a major stroke consequence that has a severe impact on patients' quality of life and survival rate. For this reason, it is especially crucial to identify and intervene early in high-risk groups during the acute phase of stroke. Currently, there are no reliable and efficient techniques for the early diagnosis, appropriate evaluation, or prognostication of PSCI. Instead, plenty of biomarkers in stroke patients have progressively been linked to cognitive impairment in recent years. High-throughput omics techniques that generate large amounts of data and process it to a high quality have been used to screen and identify biomarkers of PSCI in order to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the disease. These techniques include metabolomics, which explores dynamic changes in the organism, gut microbiomics, which studies host-microbe interactions, genomics, which elucidates deeper disease mechanisms, transcriptomics and proteomics, which describe gene expression and regulation. We looked through electronic databases like PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, and common databases for each omics to find biomarkers that might be connected to the pathophysiology of PSCI. As all, we found 34 studies: 14 in the field of metabolomics, 5 in the field of gut microbiomics, 5 in the field of genomics, 4 in the field of transcriptomics, and 7 in the field of proteomics. We discovered that neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and atherosclerosis may be the primary causes of PSCI development, and that metabolomics may play a role in the molecular mechanisms of PSCI. In this study, we summarized the existing issues across omics technologies and discuss the latest discoveries of PSCI biomarkers in the context of omics, with the goal of investigating the molecular causes of post-stroke cognitive impairment. We also discuss the potential therapeutic utility of omics platforms for PSCI mechanisms, diagnosis, and intervention in order to promote the area's advancement towards precision PSCI treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the preliminary efficacy of a combined physical exercise + cognitive training intervention for older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). DESIGN Randomized clinical trial. SETTING Veteran Affairs Hospital, Palo Alto, CA. PARTICIPANTS Sample included 72 community-dwelling volunteers (mean age 72.4 ± 9.5) diagnosed with aMCI. INTERVENTION Participants were randomized to either a combined aerobic and resistance exercise + cognitive training (CARE+CT) or stretching exercise + CT (SE+CT). MEASUREMENTS Primary outcomes included intervention specific assessments of word list and name-face recall. Secondary cognitive outcomes included standardized composite scores that reflect cognitive domains (e.g., learning and memory, executive function, processing speed, visuospatial ability, language). Secondary physiological outcomes included VO2 max and functional capacity (e.g., distance walked 6-minute walk test). APOE and BDNF were determined from whole blood samples. RESULTS Controlling for age and employment status, linear mixed effects models revealed that all participants experienced significant improvement in the delayed recall of word list, learning and memory and executive function. Only the CARE+CT condition had significant improvement in processing speed and functional capacity. APOE4 status impacted cognitive benefits of those in the SE+CT condition. CONCLUSIONS Results provide preliminary support for combined exercise and cognitive training interventions for older adults with aMCI. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms involved as well as the impact of these interventions in diverse samples. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01962038.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies of medical comorbidities and possible gender differences associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) are limited, especially among military veterans. The purpose of this study was to examine relationships between TBI history and a wide range of medical conditions in a large, national sample of veterans, and to explore interactions with gender. Participants of this cross-sectional epidemiological study included 491,604 veterans (9.9% TBI cases; 8.3% women) who enrolled in the VA Million Veteran Program (MVP). Outcomes of interest were medical comorbidities (i.e., neurological, mental health, circulatory, and other medical conditions) assessed using the MVP Baseline Survey, a self-report questionnaire. Logistic regression models adjusting for age and gender showed that veterans with TBI history consistently had significantly higher rates of medical comorbidities than controls, with the greatest differences observed across mental health (odds ratios [ORs] = 2.10-3.61) and neurological (ORs = 1.57-6.08) conditions. Similar patterns were found when evaluating men and women separately. Additionally, significant TBI-by-gender interactions were observed, particularly for mental health and neurological comorbidities, such that men with a history of TBI had greater odds of having several of these conditions than women with a history of TBI. These findings highlight the array of medical comorbidities experienced by veterans with a history of TBI, and illustrate that clinical outcomes differ for men and women with TBI history. Although these results are clinically informative, more research is needed to better understand the role of gender on health conditions in the context of TBI and how gender interacts with other social and cultural factors to influence clinical trajectories following TBI. Ultimately, understanding the biological, psychological, and social mechanisms underlying these comorbidities may help with tailoring TBI treatment by gender and improve quality of life for veterans with TBI history.

Risk Factors Analysis for 90-Day Mortality of Adult Patients with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury in an Italian Emergency Department. Geriatrics (Basel) 2024; 9:23. [PMID: 38525740 PMCID: PMC10961819 DOI: 10.3390/geriatrics9020023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose: The most prominent risk factors for mortality after mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) have not been established. This study aimed to establish risk factors related to 90-day mortality after a traumatic event. Methods: A retrospective cohort study on adult patients entering the Emergency Department of the University Hospital of Trieste for mild TBI from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020 was conducted. Results: The final population was 1221 patients (median age of 78 years). The 90-day mortality rate was 7% (90 patients). In the Cox regression model (likelihood ratio 110.9; p < 2 × 10-16), the variables that significantly correlated to 90-day mortality were age (less than 75 years old is a protective factor, HR 0.29 [95%CI 0.16-0.54]; p < 0.001); chronic liver disease (HR 4.59 [95%CI 2.56-8.24], p < 0.001); cognitive impairment (HR 2.76 [95%CI 1.78-4.27], p < 0.001); intracerebral haemorrhage (HR 15.38 [95%CI 6.13-38.63], p < 0.001); and hospitalization (HR 2.56 [95%CI 1.67-3.92], p < 0.001). Cardiovascular disease (47% vs. 11%; p < 0.001) and cognitive impairment (36% vs. 10%; p < 0.001) were more prevalent in patients over 75 years of age than the rest of the population. Conclusions: In our cohort of patients with mild TBI, 90-day mortality was low but not negligible. The risk factors associated with 90-day mortality included age, history of chronic liver disease, and cognitive impairment, as well as evidence of intracerebral hemorrhage and hospitalization. The mortality of the sub-population of older patients was likely to be linked to cardiovascular comorbidities and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Background Within older Veterans, multiple factors may contribute to cognitive difficulties. Beyond Alzheimer's disease (AD), psychiatric (e.g., PTSD) and health comorbidities (e.g., TBI) may also impact cognition. Objective This study aimed to derive subgroups based on objective cognition, subjective cognitive decline (SCD), and amyloid burden, and then compare subgroups on clinical characteristics, biomarkers, and longitudinal change in functioning and global cognition. Methods Cluster analysis of neuropsychological measures, SCD, and amyloid PET was conducted on 228 predominately male Vietnam-Era Veterans from the Department of Defense-Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative. Cluster-derived subgroups were compared on baseline characteristics as well as 1-year changes in everyday functioning and global cognition. Results The cluster analysis identified 3 groups. Group 1 (n = 128) had average-to-above average cognition with low amyloid burden. Group 2 (n = 72) had the lowest memory and language, highest SCD, and average amyloid burden; they also had the most severe PTSD, pain, and worst sleep quality. Group 3 (n = 28) had the lowest attention/executive functioning, slightly low memory and language, elevated amyloid and the worst AD biomarkers, and the fastest rate of everyday functioning and cognitive decline. CONCLUSIONS Psychiatric and health factors likely contributed to Group 2's low memory and language performance. Group 3 was most consistent with biological AD, yet attention/executive function was the lowest score. The complexity of older Veterans' co-morbid conditions may interact with AD pathology to show attention/executive dysfunction (rather than memory) as a prominent early symptom. These results could have important implications for the implementation of AD-modifying drugs in older Veterans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects ∼25% of Veterans, a prevalence rate double that of the general population. T2DM is associated with greater dementia risk and has been shown to exacerbate the impact of Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk factors on declines in daily functioning; however, there are few studies that investigate these patterns in older Veterans. OBJECTIVE This study sought to determine whether T2DM moderates the association between amyloid-β (Aβ) positron emission tomography (PET) and 1-year change in everyday functioning in older Veterans. METHODS One-hundred-ninety-eight predominately male Vietnam-Era Veterans without dementia from the Department of Defense-Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (DoD-ADNI) with (n = 74) and without (n = 124) T2DM completed Aβ PET imaging and everyday functioning measures, including the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) and Everyday Cognition (ECog). Linear mixed effects models tested the moderating role of T2DM on the association between Aβ PET and 1-year change in everyday functioning. RESULTS The 3-way T2DM×Aβ PET×time interaction was significant for CDR-SB (p < 0.001) as well as the Memory (p = 0.007) and Language (p = 0.011) subscales from the ECog. Greater amyloid burden was associated with greater increases in functional difficulties, but only in Veterans with T2DM. CONCLUSIONS Higher Aβ was only associated with declines in everyday functioning over 1 year in Veterans with T2DM. Given that people with T2DM are more likely to have co-occurring cerebrovascular disease, the combination of multiple neuropathologies may result in faster declines. Future studies should examine how diabetes duration, severity, and medications impact these associations.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is highly prevalent among individuals participating in contact sports, military personnel, and in the general population. Although it is well known that brain injury can cause neurological and psychiatric complications, evidence from studies on individuals exposed to a single or repetitive brain injuries suggests an understudied association between TBI and the risk of developing chronic cardiovascular diseases and risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Several studies have shown that people without pre-existing comorbidities who sustain a TBI have a significantly higher risk of developing chronic cardiovascular disease, than people without TBI. Similar observations made in military and professional American-style football cohorts suggest causal pathways through which modifiable cardiovascular risk factors might mediate the relationship between brain injury and chronic neurological diseases. A better understanding of cardiovascular disease risk after TBI combined with a proactive, targeted screening programme might mitigate long-term morbidity and mortality in individuals with TBI, and improve their quality of life.
