  1. Associations of the A/T/N profiles in PET, CSF, and plasma biomarkers with Alzheimer's disease neuropathology at autopsy

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2023-07-28 Biomarkers

    This study supports that PET- and CSF-related A/T/N profiles can be used to predict accurately the stages of AD neuropathology.

  2. Associations between brain inflammatory profiles and human neuropathology are altered based on apolipoprotein E ε4 genotype

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 53 out of 100. Scientific reports 2020-02-19 Genetics

    Alzheimer disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease with a multitude of contributing genetic factors, many of which are related to inflammation.

  3. Different neuroinflammatory profile in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia is linked to the clinical phase

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry 2018-09-17 Biomarkers

    Our data indicate that neuroinflammation is linked to the symptomatic phase of ALS/FTD and shows a similar pattern in sporadic and genetic cases.

  4. Different profiles of Alzheimer's disease cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers in controls and subjects with subjective memory complaints

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Journal of neural transmission (Vienna, Austria : 1996) 2010-12-16 Biomarkers

    Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers, such as Aβ(42), total-tau and phosphorylated-tau(181) reflect neuropathological changes of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  5. Diagnostic value of CSF protein profile in a Portuguese population of sCJD patients

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Journal of neurology 2009-05-06 Biomarkers

    The clinical diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is difficult, and reliable markers are highly desired.
