    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 67 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2023-02-22 Brain scans and imaging

    The site and rate of atrophy are different across the tau-PET patterns.

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Cells 2022-12-10 Genetics

    Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified the PICALM (Phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin-assembly protein) gene as the most significant genetic susceptibility locus after APOE and BIN1 .
