  1. Equivalence of Plasma and Serum for Clinical Measurement of p-tau217: Comparative Analyses of Four Blood-Based Assays

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. Journal of neurochemistry 2025-07-01 Biomarkers

    Phosphorylated tau (p-tau) 217 is a promising blood biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  2. Longitudinal cerebrospinal fluid measurements show glial hypo- and hyperactivation in predementia Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 67 out of 100. Journal of neuroinflammation 2023-12-13 Biomarkers

    Cross-sectionally, CSF sTREM2, YKL-40, clusterin and fractalkine were higher only in groups with tau pathology, independent of amyloidosis (p < 0.001, A+/T+ or N+ and A-/T+ or N+, compared to A-/T-/N-).

  3. An Ensemble Method for Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease Based on Voice Measurements

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of medical signals and sensors 2019-10-24 Biomarkers

    Current experimental outcomes provide a comparative analysis of various machine learning classifiers and confirm that using ensemble-based methods has improved medical diagnostic tasks.

  4. Towards a unified protocol for handling of CSF before β-amyloid measurements

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2019-07-19 Biomarkers

    CSF can be stored for up to 72 h at RT, 1 week at 4 °C, or at least 2 weeks at either - 20 °C or - 80 °C before Aβ measurements.

  5. Longitudinal measurement of serum neurofilament light in presymptomatic familial Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 64 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2019-02-20 Biomarkers

    There is evidence that serum NfL is increased more than a decade before the onset of clinical symptoms in FAD and rises thereafter.

  6. Validation of ELISA methods for quantification of total tau and phosporylated-tau181 in human cerebrospinal fluid with measurement in specimens from two Alzheimer's disease studies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2011-01-01 Biomarkers

    Tau measurements in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are gaining acceptance as aids to diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and differentiation from other dementias.

  7. Registration based cortical thickness measurement

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. NeuroImage 2008-12-25 Tau biomarkers

    Cortical thickness is an important biomarker for image-based studies of the brain.

  8. Standardization of measurement of beta-amyloid(1-42) in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Amyloid : the international journal of experimental and clinical investigation : the official journal of the International Society of Amyloidosis 2000-12-01 Tau biomarkers

    The standardization and clinical validation of the measurement of beta-amyloid(1-42) (Abeta42) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), plasma and urine is described using a commercially available sandwich-type ELISA with 21F12 and 3D6 as monoclonal antibodies.
