Newest first, then by address. Each study has a usefulness score out of 100 (rubric version 4.0); tap a score to see what makes it up. Tags were assigned automatically from each study's title and summary. The same studies as a filter in the library.

  1. Plasma pTau217 ratio predicts continuous regional brain tau accumulation in amyloid-positive early Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 74 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2024-11-22 Biomarkers

    PTau217R reliably predicts regional tau accumulation in early AD, reducing reliance on tau PET scans and broadening its clinical application.

  2. Plasma pTau217 predicts continuous brain amyloid levels in preclinical and early Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2024-06-28 Biomarkers

    Models integrating pTau217R outperformed Aβ42/Aβ40 alone, predicting amyloid levels up to 89.1 CL.

  3. Continuous infusion of beta-amyloid protein into the rat cerebral ventricle induces learning impairment and neuronal and morphological degeneration

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Japanese journal of pharmacology 1997-01-01 Biomarkers

    To investigate the toxicity of beta-amyloid protein, a component of the senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease, it was infused into the cerebral ventricle of rats for 14 days by a mini-osmotic pump.
