abstract = {Subjective cognitive decline (SCD), as expressed by older
adults, is associated with negative affect, which, in turn,
is a likely risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This
study assessed the associations between negative affective
burden, cognitive functioning, and functional connectivity
in networks vulnerable to AD in the context of SCD. Older
participants (60-90 years) with SCD (n = 51) and healthy
controls (n = 50) were investigated in a cross-sectional
study. Subclinical negative affective burden, quantified
through a composite of self-reported negative affective
factors, was related to cognitive functioning
(self-perceived and objective) and functional connectivity.
Seed-to-voxel analyses were carried out in default mode
network (DMN) and salience network (SAL) nodes using
resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. Greater
negative affective burden was associated with lower
self-perceived cognitive functioning and lower
between-network functional connectivity of DMN and SAL nodes
in the total sample. In addition, there was a significant
moderation of SCD status. Greater negative affective burden
related to higher functional connectivity within DMN
(posterior cingulate-to-precuneus) and within SAL (anterior
cingulate-to-insula) nodes in the SCD group, whereas in
controls the inverse association was found. We show that
negative affective burden is associated with functional
brain alterations in older adults, regardless of SCD status.
Specifically in the SCD phenotype, greater negative
affective burden relates to higher functional connectivity
within brain networks vulnerable to AD. Our findings imply
that negative affective burden should be considered a
potentially modifiable target for early intervention.},
