Utility of the Dependence Scale in dementia: validity, meaningfulness, and health economic considerations.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Animal models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are essential to understanding the disease progression and to development of early biomarkers. Because AD has been described as a disconnection syndrome, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based connectomics provides a highly translational approach to characterizing th...
