You can call any of these for free. You do not need a diagnosis, an appointment, or a crisis to call — questions and plain exhaustion are reasons enough.

  1. Identification of the Aβ37/42 peptide ratio in CSF as an improved Aβ biomarker for Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2022-03-12 Biomarkers

    We conclude that the Aβ 37/42 ratio sensitively detects presenilin/γ-secretase dysfunction and better distinguishes CN from AD than Aβ42/40 in CSF.

  2. Identification and in vitro characterization of C05-01, a PBB3 derivative with improved affinity for alpha-synuclein

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Brain research 2020-09-18 Brain scans and imaging

    The neuropathological hallmark of Parkinsońs disease, multiple system atrophy and dementia with Lewy bodies is the accumulation of α-synuclein.

  3. Improved power for characterizing longitudinal amyloid-β PET changes and evaluating amyloid-modifying treatments with a cerebral white matter reference region

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 62 out of 100. Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine 2015-03-05 Brain scans and imaging

    A cerebral white matter reference region may improve the power to track longitudinal fibrillar Aβ increases, to characterize their relationship to longitudinal clinical declines, and to evaluate Aβ-modifying treatments in randomized clinical trials.

  4. Improved longitudinal [(18)F]-AV45 amyloid PET by white matter reference and VOI-based partial volume effect correction

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 60 out of 100. NeuroImage 2014-12-04 Brain scans and imaging

    Amyloid positron-emission-tomography (PET) offers an important research and diagnostic tool for investigating Alzheimer's disease (AD).
