  1. The CSF neurofilament light signature in rapidly progressive neurodegenerative dementias

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2018-01-11 Biomarkers

    The present data indicate that CSF NfL and t-tau levels reflect distinct pathophysiological mechanisms of neurodegeneration and support the clinical use of NfL as a fast screening biomarker for the differential diagnosis of atypical/rapidly progressive NDs.

  2. CSF neurofilament light levels predict hippocampal atrophy in cognitively healthy older adults

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 62 out of 100. Neurobiology of aging 2016-09-28 Biomarkers

    Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neurofilament light (NFL) is a marker of axonal degeneration.

  3. CSF neurofilament protein (NFL) -- a marker of active HIV-related neurodegeneration

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of neurology 2007-04-10 Biomarkers

    Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NFL concentrations were measured by ELISA (normal < 250 ng/l) in archived samples from 210 HIV-infected patients not taking antiretroviral treatment: 55 with AIDS dementia complex (ADC), 44 with various CNS opportunistic infections/tumours (CNS OIs), 95 without neurological symptoms or signs, and 16 with primary HIV infection (PHI).

  4. A systematic review and meta-analysis of CSF neurofilament protein levels as biomarkers in dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 72 out of 100. Neuro-degenerative diseases 2007-01-01 Biomarkers

    At present we cannot recommend CSF NfH and NfL levels for use as a screening test in the diagnosis of dementia because of the rather small effect size.
