Brain Integrity Prior to Surgery and “Good” Inflammation?
Free-water change seen after surgery may indicate widespread glial response, with greater change indicative of better brain response to the acute surgery/anesthesia experience. See…

Read Full Scientific Article Our research team shows that baseline brain integrity (brain markers commonly seen with Alzheimer’s Disease-Vascular Dementia) and cognitive function predict variability during a controlled period of anesthesia while having knee replacement surgery. This is the first study to examine intra-individual variability on…
Jared J. Tanner, Nikolaus R. McFarland, and Catherine C. Price* Background: Analyses of subcortical gray structure volumes in non-demented idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD) often, but not always, show volume loss of the putamen, caudate nucleus, nucleus accumbens, and hippocampus. There is building evidence that structure morphometry might…

Dr. Shellie-Anne Levy, a postdoctoral fellow within our lab, was recently awarded an Alzheimer’s Association grant entitled “Engaging Diverse Populations in Behavioral Interventions for MCI.” This pilot study will examine the barriers to recruitment, enrollment, and retention of older African Americans to a successful and already established cognitive rehabilitation program…

Please read our recent October 2015 publication. Do individuals with Parkinson’s Disease experience negative outcomes after electing total knee replacement surgery or back surgery? We attempted to address this question. The study was challenging to conduct. Conclusion: We need to conduct multi-center investigations on this topic in order to improve care…
