Brain network analysis reveals that amyloidopathy affects comorbid cognitive dysfunction in older adults with depression

Abstract Late-life depression (LLD) may increase the risk of Alzheimer’s dementia (AD). While amyloidopathy accelerates AD progression, its role in such patients has not yet been elucidated. We hypothesized that cerebral amyloidopathy distinctly affects the alteration of brain network topology and m...
