Neuroimaging and analytical methods for studying the pathways from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease: protocol for a rapid systematic review

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder commonly associated with deficits of cognition and changes in behavior. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is the prodromal stage of AD that is defined by slight cognitive decline. Not all with MCI progress to AD dementia. Thus, the accurate prediction of progression to Alzheimer's, particularly in the stage of MCI could potentially offer developing treatments to delay or prevent the transition process. The objective of the present study is to investigate the most recent neuroimaging procedures in the domain of prediction of transition from MCI to AD dementia for clinical applications and to systematically discuss the machine learning techniques used for the prediction of MCI conversion. Methods: Electronic databases including PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science will be searched from January 1, 2017, to the date of search commencement to provide a rapid review of the most recent studies that have investigated the prediction of conversion from MCI to Alzheimer's using neuroimaging modalities in randomized trial or observational studies. Two reviewers will screen full texts of included papers using predefined eligibility criteria. Studies will be included if addressed research on AD dementia and MCI, explained the results in a way that would be able to report the performance measures such as the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. Only studies addressed Alzheimer's type of dementia and its early-stage MCI using neuroimaging modalities will be included. We will exclude other forms of dementia such as vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and Parkinson's disease. The risk of bias in individual studies will be appraised using an appropriate tool. If feasible, we will conduct a random effects meta-analysis. Sensitivity analyses will be conducted to explore the potential sources of heterogeneity.

“…It lives in the web browser, simplifying the research process by making it easier to save and manage references. Zotero has previously been described in several product reviews [1,2] and articles that compare Zotero with other reference management tools [3,4].

“…1 Endnote is a commercial tool for managing references that can manage large libraries in a desktop system. Trinoskey et al [5] concluded that it was particularly suitable for academic writing. Endnote fully supports R2, R3 and R7; it partially supports the R1 (download metadata only) and R4 (search in metadata only).…”

The Emergence of Digital Libraries – Research and Practices

Abstract. This paper discusses options for tracking academic reading material and introduces a personal digital library solution. We combined and extended the open source projects Zotero and Greenstone such that material can be easily downloaded and ingested into the combined system. Our prototype system has been explored in a small user study. IntroductionResearchers have to keep track of an increasing number of electronic publications. Not all articles and papers are read immediately, and keeping track of one's reading list is not straightforward [4]. Once a text has been evaluated, read or identified to be read later, many researcher instigate their own routine for managing the process of recording and remembering the context, location and identified need for that book or article. This paper is our first investigation into how to manage this problem for eReading environments. We report on a project that aimed to identify the issues academics encounter as they keep track of their reading material, and a software solution to support this process. We explored popular citation management software systems and rather than devising a completely new system, we instead re-use and extend available systems (the two open source projects Zotero and Greenstone) to form a personal digital library system for tracking digital reading material. The resulting prototype was evaluated in a small-scale user study. User studyThe study investigated the kinds of reading materials that students and academics keep track of, as well as the software or methods they use for tracking. Each participant answered questions in a questionnaire and an interview. Twenty people participated (14 male/6 female; 2 under 29, 10 under 39, 5 under 48 and three 48 and over; 14 students/6 academics; 13 from IT and 7 from other academic fields). All were highly experienced with computers (>10 years) and 18 used computers more than 4 hours each day. In our evaluation here we focus on academic reading.Reading material. 14 participants indicated that academic reading occupies about 66% to 85% of their reading materials, for two it is more and for the other four it is less. For 15 participants, more than 60% of their reading is articles and conference papers (>80% for 9 of these), and all 20 rea about 20% are books and theses. 18 of 20 read articles and papers wholly or predominantly in electronic form, and 14 read books predominantly as hardcopies. The remainder of academic reading is largely done electronically.Tracking intention. None of the participants were interested in tracking which nonacademic reading they had done or were currently engaged in, but only the reading they wished to do in future. For academic reading, all participants were interested in tracking what they will read and what they had read; 10 wish to track their current reading. All participants keep copies of electronic materials on their computers, and 10 print the materials in various circumstances. All participants noted that they tend to track their academic digital materials only wh...
