Patterns of cognitive and motor decline in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and ageing in healthy populations

Key Points

• Cognitive decline is observed alongside motor decline in Alzheimer's Disease, implying a shared pathway in neurodegeneration.
• Key evidence includes significant impairment metrics where Alzheimer's participants show a 40% greater decline in cognitive functions.
• Analysis through longitudinal studies helps identify trends in cognitive and motor decline across various age groups.
• This highlights the importance of early intervention strategies targeting brain health and motor functions in older adults.
