The main goal of this study is to perform a multimodal characterization of brain structural and functional changes, as well as changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers, as a function of sleep quality measures. Cross-sectional data will enable us to confirm and expand previous knowledge in a large and well-phenotyped population, while longitudinal data will allow us to test the hypothesis of the existence of a bidirectional relationship between sleep quality and AD.

A total of 200 participants from the BBRC ALFA+ study (ALFA - FPM - 0311) will be selected based on their core AD biomarker profile to characterize their sleep quality with objective (actigraphy and RUSleeping RTS) and subjective measures.
Participants will be classified into two different groups, based on previously established CSF biomarkers cut off values, as follows: 1) Controls: individuals with CSF Aβ42/ Aβ40 ratio > 0.071 ng/mL (considered as without altered AD biomarkers). 2) Preclinical AD: individuals with CSF Aβ42/ Aβ40 ratio 0.071 ≤ ng/mL (considered as with evidence of brain amyloidosis). However, it must be noted that thresholds for core biomarker abnormalities in preclinical AD, is an ongoing field of research and that these thresholds may vary with the addition of novel data/evidence resulting from our group and others.
