  1. Sleep spindles and slow oscillations predict cognition and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 71 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2025-01-29 Biomarkers

    Our findings demonstrate that spindle and SO activity during sleep constitute predictive and non-invasive biomarkers of neurodegeneration and cognition in AD patients.

  2. Dissociable contribution of plasma NfL and p-tau181 to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 60 out of 100. Parkinsonism & related disorders 2022-06-08 Biomarkers

    Plasma NfL levels objectively differentiates PD-MCI from PD-NC patients, and may serve as a plasma biomarker for predicting progression to dementia in PD.

  3. Plasma phosphorylated-tau181 levels reflect white matter microstructural changes across Alzheimer's disease progression

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 62 out of 100. Metabolic brain disease 2022-01-11 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is characterized by cognitive impairments that hinder daily activities and lead to personal and behavioral problems.
