Topic: Amyloid, tau and blood-test diagnosis

The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) PET Core has evolved over time, beginning with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of a subsample of participants with [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET, adding tracers for measurement of β-amyloid, followed by tau tracers. This review examines the evolution of the ADNI PET Core, the novel aspects of PET imaging in each stage of ADNI, and gives an accounting of PET images available in the ADNI database. The ADNI PET Core has been and continues to be a rich resource that provides quantitative PET data and preprocessed PET images to the scientific community, allowing interrogation of both basic and clinically relevant questions. By standardizing methods across different PET scanners and multiple PET tracers, the Core has demonstrated the feasibility of large-scale, multi-center PET studies. Data managed and disseminated by the PET Core has been critical to defining pathophysiological models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and helped to drive methods used in modern therapeutic trials. HIGHLIGHTS: The ADNI PET Core began with FDG-PET and now includes three amyloid and three tau PET ligands. The PET Core has standardized acquisition and analysis of multitracer PET images. The ADNI PET Core helped to develop methods that have facilitated clinical trials in AD.

Published in a leading specialty journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record and multi-centre collaboration, so those were left out: it earned 28 of the 58 points we could judge it on, which is 48 out of 100.
