Alzheimer's & Dementia marks first issue
New Alzheimer's Association journal now available
Philadelphia, PA. October 11, 2005 --Elsevier, world-leading scientific
and medical publisher, and the Alzheimer's Association are pleased to
announce the recent publication of the premiere issue of Alzheimer's &
Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer's Association. Zaven
Khachaturian, Ph.D. - a renowned authority in brain aging, brain health,
and Alzheimer's disease - serves as the Founding Editor-in-Chief.
Alzheimer's & Dementia focuses on "bench-to-bedside" studies, drawn from
the many scientific and healthcare disciplines involved in this
burgeoning area of research. In addition to peer-reviewed research, the
journal presents reviews and expert perspectives from leaders in
contributing disciplines, as well as editorials and special issues on
topics of interest. Abstracts are available free online at the journal's
website, www.alzheimersanddementia.org. Individual subscribers may
access the full text of all journal content online, and institutions may
access the journal online through ScienceDirect, the leading online
platform for libraries.
Highlights of the premiere issue include research linking a diet high in
folate to a reduced risk of Alzheimer's disease. In that study,
Alzheimer's disease risk was reduced by 55 percent for older adults with
a total folate intake at or above the U.S. RDA of 400 micrograms per
day. Other studies address potentially new approaches to early
identification and treatment of Alzheimer's disease and dementia,
including the possible protective effect of treatment for high blood
pressure.
Alzheimer's & Dementia will be published quarterly, along with a special
supplement containing abstracts of papers from each biannual
International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders.
Manuscripts are being accepted now through Elsevier's online submission
and editorial system, accessible at http://ees.elsevier.com/adj/.
"It is a privilege to work with the Alzheimer's Association in producing
this pioneering journal," comments Cynthia Baudendistel, Executive
Publisher of Alzheimer's & Dementia for Elsevier. " Alzheimer's &
Dementia will prove a uniquely valuable resource to all professionals in
the field - from neurobiologists doing basic science research to
physicians and others providing frontline care."
