Newest studies

Every summary in our library, newest first, as a dated timeline.

What "newest" means here

The most recent study in this library is dated 2026-11-01 (Paths of Aging Minds: Health Journeys of Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment). This is our summary library, not a news wire — it is added to in batches, so the newest entry may not be the newest paper published anywhere.

Entries are sorted strictly by publication date, newest first. 26489 of the 27380 entries carry a full day-level date. 65 have no date recorded at all and are placed by publication year, at the start of that year; those are marked "no date recorded" below so you can see where the ordering is a best effort rather than a fact.

    Vesicle permeabilization by protofibrillar alpha-synuclein: implications for the pathogenesis and treatment of Parkinson's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed Lewy body dementia Biochemistry

    Key finding: Both alpha-synuclein mutations linked to autosomal dominant early-onset forms of PD promote the in vitro conversion of the natively unfolded protein into ordered prefibrillar oligomers, suggesting that these protofibrils, rather than the fibril itself, may induce cell death.

    Hippocampal formation glucose metabolism and volume losses in MCI and AD

    Key finding: These findings support the model that derangement of hippocampus signal transduction cascades in AD arises as a consequence of increased Abeta burden and chronic activation of the ERK MAPK cascade in an alpha7 nAChR-dependent manner that eventually leads to the downregulation of ERK2 MAPK and decreased phosphorylation of CREB protein.
