OverviewAI-generated summary
Rosalinda Medrano's research focuses on cognitive function and neurological disorders, particularly Alzheimer's disease, within diverse populations. Her work investigates the association between factors such as cerebral glucose metabolism, mild behavioral impairment, and cognition in autosomal-dominant Alzheimer's disease. Medrano also examines sex differences in diffusion-weighted imaging outcomes for this condition.
Her research extends to the adaptation and validation of cognitive assessment tools for specific demographic groups, such as the Latin American Spanish Preclinical Alzheimer's Cognitive Composite (LAS-PACC5) for Spanish-speaking Latino populations. Medrano also studies the relationship between physical activity and cognitive health in community-dwelling Latino older adults and the associations between mild behavioral impairment and functional impairment in this demographic. Earlier work by Medrano has explored excess pregnancy weight gain in Latinas and its impact on infant adiposity and growth hormones.
