Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Referred to the UCLA NeuroPET Clinics for concern of cognitive decline and/or behavioral changes.
  • Standard history, physical, and laboratory screen performed to identify possible presence of depression, substance abuse, malnourishment, medical effects and interactions, cardiopulmonary compromise, electrolyte/calcium imbalance, anemia, hypoxemia, infection, thyroid dysfunction, renal dysfunction, hepatic dysfunction, or glucose dysregulation, and appropriate therapies administered (if any).
  • Appropriate neurological consultation has been obtained, as well as CT/MRI and/or neurosurgical consultation if history or neurologic exam reveal findings suspicious for stroke, tumor, bleed, ictal activity, or hydrocephalus.

Exclusion

  • Have begun cholinesterase inhibitors or memantine in the last 6 months.
  • Patient lacks adequate functional status and/or caregiver support to reliably follow grape consumption regimen.
