  1. Impact of cardiovascular risk factors on plasma biomarkers in prediction of Alzheimer's and cerebrovascular neuropathology

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 64 out of 100. The journal of prevention of Alzheimer's disease 2025-06-11 Biomarkers

    However, chronic cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes and hypertension are associated with plasma biomarker levels and can influence the accurate prediction of underlying neuropathologic changes.

  2. Probing the proteome to explore potential correlates of increased Alzheimer's-related cerebrovascular disease in adults with Down syndrome

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2022-02-24 Biomarkers

    Cerebrovascular disease is associated with symptoms and pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) among adults with Down syndrome (DS).

  3. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker losartan prevents and rescues cerebrovascular, neuropathological and cognitive deficits in an Alzheimer's disease model

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neurobiology of disease 2014-05-05 Biomarkers

    Angiotensin II (AngII) receptor blockers that bind selectively AngII type 1 (AT1) receptors may protect from Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  4. Regressive changes of astroglia in white matter lesions in cerebrovascular disease and Alzheimer's disease patients

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica 1997-08-01 Biomarkers

    The pathogenesis of white matter lesions, which are frequently found in ischemic cerebrovascular disease and Alzheimer's disease, remains unclear.

  5. Alterations of the blood-brain barrier and glial cells in white-matter lesions in cerebrovascular and Alzheimer's disease patients

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Stroke 1996-11-01 Biomarkers

    Dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier is more prominent in white-matter lesions seen in ischemic CVD than in AD and may have a role in the pathogenesis of cerebrovascular white-matter lesions.

  6. Chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency induces dementia-like deficits in aged rats

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Brain research 1992-06-01 Biomarkers

    Young and aged rats were subjected to cerebrovascular insufficiency (CVI) for 3 and 9 weeks.
