  1. The Global Neurodegeneration Proteomics Consortium: biomarker and drug target discovery for common neurodegenerative diseases and aging

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Nature medicine 2025-07-15 Caregiving

    More than 57 million people globally suffer from neurodegenerative diseases, a figure expected to double every 20 years.

  2. Centiloid recommendations for clinical context-of-use from the AMYPAD consortium

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2024-11-20 Brain scans and imaging

    Amyloid-PET quantification through the tracer-independent Centiloid (CL) scale has emerged as an essential tool for the accurate measurement of amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients.

  3. MarkVCID cerebral small vessel consortium: II. Neuroimaging protocols

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2021-01-21 Brain scans and imaging

    The MarkVCID consortium was formed under cooperative agreements with the National Institute of Neurologic Diseases and Stroke (NINDS) and National Institute on Aging (NIA) in 2016 with the goals of developing and validating biomarkers for the cerebral small vessel diseases associated with the vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID).

  4. Genome-wide studies of verbal declarative memory in nondemented older people: the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology consortium

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Biological psychiatry 2014-11-25 Genetics

    This largest study to date exploring the genetics of memory function in ~40,000 older individuals revealed genome-wide associations and suggested an involvement of immune and ubiquitin pathways.

  5. Validation of the neuropathologic criteria of the third consortium for dementia with Lewy bodies for prospectively diagnosed cases

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Journal of neuropathology and experimental neurology 2008-07-01 Brain scans and imaging

    There is limited information on the validity of the pathologic criteria of the Third Consortium on Dementia with Lewy bodies (CDLB), and none are based on prospectively diagnosed cases.
