Gender differences in event-related potentials of subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment during a sustained visuo-attentive task
Aims. Gender influences distinct risk profiles for Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as in earlier stages of subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The electroencephalogram (EEG) presents a cost-effective solution for monitoring scalp correlates associated with cognitive decline. In this study, we explored the gender-related effects on EEG correlates during event-related potentials (ERPs) time-locked to target correct responses in a sustained visual attention task, specifically the 3-choice vigilance test (3CVT).Methods. We enrolled 86 SCD patients (59F), 40 MC
