  1. CSF neurofilament protein (NFL) -- a marker of active HIV-related neurodegeneration

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of neurology 2007-04-10 Biomarkers

    Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NFL concentrations were measured by ELISA (normal < 250 ng/l) in archived samples from 210 HIV-infected patients not taking antiretroviral treatment: 55 with AIDS dementia complex (ADC), 44 with various CNS opportunistic infections/tumours (CNS OIs), 95 without neurological symptoms or signs, and 16 with primary HIV infection (PHI).

  2. A systematic review and meta-analysis of CSF neurofilament protein levels as biomarkers in dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 72 out of 100. Neuro-degenerative diseases 2007-01-01 Biomarkers

    At present we cannot recommend CSF NfH and NfL levels for use as a screening test in the diagnosis of dementia because of the rather small effect size.

  3. Neurofilament protein levels in CSF are increased in dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Neurology 1999-03-01 Biomarkers

    The neurofilament is the major cytoskeletal structure of myelinated axons.
