  1. Blood biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease in the community: Variation by chronic diseases and inflammatory status

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2024-05-08 Biomarkers

    In the community, the concentration of AD blood biomarkers varies in relation to medical conditions and systemic inflammation.

  2. Different inflammatory signatures based on CSF biomarkers relate to preserved or diminished brain structure and cognition

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 72 out of 100. Molecular psychiatry 2024-01-12 Biomarkers

    Neuroinflammation is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and both positive and negative associations of individual inflammation-related markers with brain structure and cognitive function have been described.

  3. Plasma β-amyloid, tau, neurodegeneration biomarkers and inflammatory factors of probable Alzheimer's disease dementia in Chinese individuals

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Frontiers in aging neuroscience 2022-08-18 Biomarkers

    The levels of plasma ATN biomarkers (Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio, p-tua181, and NfL) were significantly changed in clinically diagnosed AD patients and they all associated with different domains of cognitive impairment.

  4. Associations between brain inflammatory profiles and human neuropathology are altered based on apolipoprotein E ε4 genotype

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 53 out of 100. Scientific reports 2020-02-19 Genetics

    Alzheimer disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease with a multitude of contributing genetic factors, many of which are related to inflammation.

  5. Chronic exposure to aluminum in drinking water increases inflammatory parameters selectively in the brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neuroscience research 2004-02-01 Biomarkers

    A link between aluminum (Al) exposure and age-related neurological disorders has long been proposed.
