    Abstract Background: Growing evidence indicates associations between neighbourhood-related factors such as pollution, social isolation and physical inactivity, and cognition, that is, our ability to think clearly, learn and remember. The evidence raises the possibility of neighbourhood intervention playing a role in protecting population cognitive health. However, there is little understanding of these associations among the public and policy-makers, what they mean and how they might be acted on. In this study we explored perceptions of the public and policy-makers about influences of neighbourhood factors on brain functioning, and how they should inform policy.
    Methods: Qualitative methods were used in three phases; the study ran in parallel with a quantitative study looking at neighbourhood influences on cognition. In phase one, focus groups were conducted with middle-aged (40-69) members of the public to inform statistical modelling. In phase two, similar focus groups were held in four case study areas chosen based on the modelling results. In phase three, interviews with people in public health and policy roles were conducted, including people in the case study sites.
    Results: Participants described effects on their cognition from community, culture and social interactions, access to green spaces and nature, upkeep and safety of the area, and pollution, traffic and noise. Solutions included better local consultation and involvement in policy and planning, support for community interactions and active and public transport, and education on cognition. There was little awareness, but much interest, from local policy-makers and implementers, about links between cognition and place. Barriers to implementation included lack of: effective engagement with local communities, local funding and joined-up health and neighbourhood policy.
    Conclusions: People can perceive impacts of neighbourhoods on brain functioning and suggest ways local areas can be improved to support cognitive health. There is support for the idea of population-level interventions to support cognitive health.

    Abstract Background: Binary reversals (exemplified by 'yes'/'no' confusions) have been described in patients with primary progressive aphasia (PPA) but their diagnostic value and phenotypic correlates have not been defined.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study analysing demographic, clinical, neuropsychological, linguistic and behavioural data from patients representing all major PPA syndromes (non-fluent/agrammatic variant, nfvPPA; logopenic variant, lvPPA; semantic variant, svPPA) and behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). The prevalence of binary reversals and behavioural abnormalities, illness duration, parkinsonian features and neuropsychological test scores were compared between neurodegenerative syndromes, and the diagnostic predictive value of binary reversals was assessed using logistic regression.
    Results: Data were obtained for 83 patients (21 nfvPPA, 13 lvPPA, 22 svPPA, 27 bvFTD). Binary reversals occurred in all patients with nfvPPA, but significantly less frequently and later in lvPPA (54%), svPPA (9%) and bvFTD (44%). Patients with bvFTD with binary reversals had significantly more severe language (but not general executive or behavioural) deficits than those without reversals. Controlling for potentially confounding variables, binary reversals strongly predicted a diagnosis of nfvPPA over other syndromes.
    Conclusions: Binary reversals are a sensitive (though not specific) neurolinguistic feature of nfvPPA, and should suggest this diagnosis if present as a prominent early symptom.

    Abstract The characteristics and determinants of health and disease are often organized in space, reflecting our spatially extended nature. Understanding the influence of such factors requires models capable of capturing spatial relations. Drawing on statistical parametric mapping, a framework for topological inference well established in the realm of neuroimaging, we propose and validate an approach to the spatial analysis of diverse clinical data-GeoSPM-based on differential geometry and random field theory. We evaluate GeoSPM across an extensive array of synthetic simulations encompassing diverse spatial relationships, sampling, and corruption by noise, and demonstrate its application on large-scale data from UK Biobank. GeoSPM is readily interpretable, can be implemented with ease by non-specialists, enables flexible modeling of complex spatial relations, exhibits robustness to noise and under-sampling, offers principled criteria of statistical significance, and is through computational efficiency readily scalable to large datasets. We provide a complete, open-source software implementation.
