Description

Cecilia Gonzalez Campo and co-authors ask in 2025 which brain changes steal daily function along the Alzheimer path. Gray matter shrinkage and white matter bright spots on scans both track with worse thinking and daily skills. The study grouped 130 matched adults across subjective decline, mild impairment, and dementia.

Daily function was scored with a technology-based questionnaire, brain volume by morphometry, and white matter lesions split by location. The dementia group managed daily tasks worst, with less gray matter and more lesions near the ventricles. The analysis weighs which scan measure, volume or lesion load and place, best explains lost function.
