  1. Association between glymphatic system function and cognitive impairment in elderly patients with late-onset epilepsy

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Epilepsy & behavior : E&B 2025-01-18 Biomarkers

    Our findings using DTI-ALPS method found a positive correlation between cognitive decline and GS dysfunction in LOE patients, and may indicate a potential internal link between age-related LOEU and dementia formation.

  2. CSF biomarkers of immune activation and Alzheimer's disease for predicting cognitive impairment risk in the elderly

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Science advances 2024-04-03 Biomarkers

    The immune system substantially influences age-related cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression, affected by genetic and environmental factors.

  3. Serum amyloid beta protein in young and elderly depression: a pilot study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 59 out of 100. Psychogeriatrics : the official journal of the Japanese Psychogeriatric Society 2009-12-01 Biomarkers

    Serum Abeta40/42 ratio was significantly higher in MDD patients than in controls, and this difference was seen for both elderly and young subjects.
