“…It is an intriguing possibility that an over-engagement with the parahippocampus and anterior cingulate by e4+ individuals throughout youth may provoke a neurogenic response that leads to the relative enlargement in these areas, as observed in our mid-age e4+ cohort. This pattern of non-linear cerebral atrophy has been reported in a recent study across several key brain areas, including the medial temporal structures (79). In that study, a thicker parahippocampal cortex among e4+ individuals was observed in the prodromal AD cohort, but the increased cortical thickness was not maintained and, mirroring previous findings in the hippocampus (71,72), it reverted at later stages of the disease profile.…”

“…The same group showed that the cortex was thicker in healthy controls with low CSF Aβ levels in the absence of abnormal p‐ tau levels; whereas the cortex was thinner in subjects with abnormal CSF levels of both Aβ and p‐ tau (Fortea et al, ). In a wider study of the AD continuum (including cognitively intact subjects, subjects with MCI and dementia), a transient increase in hippocampal volume was reported for subjects with low composite AD‐CSF indices (defined as the sum of the normalized CSF concentrations of Aβ and tau reflecting the level of pathology and position along the AD continuum) followed by decline at higher indices (Gispert et al, ). These recent studies and our own results suggest that pathological burden is not necessarily associated with universal volumetric decline as described in several models of AD (Jack et al, ).…”

“…Results were considered significant if surviving a whole‐brain voxel‐wise statistical threshold of p  < .001 applying a cluster extent threshold correction of 100 contiguous voxels. This procedure is reliably conservative and further protects against Type I error (Gispert et al, 2015; Wishart et al, 2006). Finally, to reduce dimensionality and to search for common patterns of brain morphology variability associated to EM and EFs, we additionally performed a principal component analysis separately performed for the two cognitive domains and repeated all the above analyses using the extracted principal components as dependent variables (Gaskin & Happell, 2014).…”
