  1. Similar brain proteomic signatures in Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica 2024-01-30 Biomarkers

    The prevalence of epilepsy is increased among Alzheimer's Disease (AD) patients and cognitive impairment is common among people with epilepsy.

  2. Beta-amyloid, phospho-tau and alpha-synuclein deposits similar to those in the brain are not identified in the eyes of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease patients

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland) 2013-06-28 Brain scans and imaging

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are the two most common neurodegenerative disorders, and are characterized by deposition of specific proteins in the brain.

  3. Similar amyloid-β burden in posterior cortical atrophy and Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2011-07-01 Brain scans and imaging

    While the clinical presentation of posterior cortical atrophy is clearly distinct from typical Alzheimer's disease, neuropathological studies have suggested that most patients with posterior cortical atrophy have Alzheimer's disease with an atypical visual presentation.
