(DIADEM) Digital Assessment of Auditory Perception in Dementia : Study Protocol

Abstract

Background: In Alzheimer's disease (AD), disruption of neural circuits in temporoparietal cortical areas leads to early auditory dysfunction, such as impaired speech‐in‐noise perception. Research shows that poorer speech‐in‐noise performance is associated with lower cognitive performance and reduced grey matter in areas vulnerable to AD.
