  1. 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.

  2. Cerebrospinal Fluid Profile of Tau, Phosphorylated Tau, Aβ42, and Aβ40 in Probable Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2022-01-01 Biomarkers

    CSF biomarkers may improve the accuracy of the modified Boston criteria with altered profile in 85% of the patients fulfilling revised Boston criteria for probable CAA.

  3. Performance of Plasma Amyloid β, Total Tau, and Neurofilament Light Chain in the Identification of Probable Alzheimer's Disease in South China

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 62 out of 100. Frontiers in aging neuroscience 2021-10-27 Biomarkers

    After adjusting for age, sex, and the apolipoprotein E ( APOE ) alleles, compared to the CN group, the plasma t-tau, and NfL were significantly increased in the AD group ( p < 0.01, Bonferroni correction).

  4. Validity of a Novel Touch Screen Tablet-Based Assessment for Mild Cognitive Impairment and Probable AD in Older Adults

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Assessment 2017-12-18 Cognitive tests and assessment

    This study aimed to develop a psychometrically valid touch screen tablet-based cognitive test battery to identify early cognitive impairment due to dementia in older adults.

  5. Glycoprotein 330/megalin: probable role in receptor-mediated transport of apolipoprotein J alone and in a complex with Alzheimer disease amyloid beta at the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 1996-04-01 Tau biomarkers

    A soluble form of Alzheimer disease amyloid beta-protein (sA beta) is transported in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid mainly complexed with apolipoprotein J (apoJ).
