    After adjusting for retinal scan signal strength, neurofilament light chain showed a stronger negative association with retinal nerve fibre layer thickness [standardized beta estimate ( β ) = -0.184] and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness ( β = -0.139) compared to phosphorylated tau181, which exhibited weaker associations with ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer ( β = -0.091) and retinal nerve fibre layer ( β = -0.059).

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 59 out of 100. Eye (London, England) 2022-04-15 Brain scans and imaging

    The retina and the optic nerve are considered extensions of the central nervous system (CNS) and thus can serve as the window for evaluation of CNS disorders.

  3. Demonstration of age-related blood-brain barrier disruption and cerebromicrovascular rarefaction in mice by longitudinal intravital two-photon microscopy and optical coherence tomography

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. American journal of physiology. Heart and circulatory physiology 2021-02-05 Brain scans and imaging

    Age-related blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and cerebromicrovascular rarefaction contribute importantly to the pathogenesis of both vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID) and Alzheimer's disease (AD).

    The superficial vascular density in the AD and MCI patient groups was significantly lower than that in the HC group.

  5. Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Neurodegenerative Diseases: A Review

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Eye and brain 2020-07-14 Brain scans and imaging

    Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) has emerged as a novel, fast, safe and non-invasive imaging technique of analyzing the retinal and choroidal microvasculature in vivo.

  6. Retinal microvascular attenuation in mental cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease by optical coherence tomography angiography

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Acta ophthalmologica 2020-03-09 Brain scans and imaging

    Our findings demonstrated the macular microvascular attenuation in MCI and AD patients.

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. Investigative ophthalmology & visual science 2019-08-01 Brain scans and imaging

    AD and POAG are neurodegenerative diseases associated with apoptosis of nerve cells and impairment of microvasculature.
