    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Dementia and geriatric cognitive disorders 2020-04-28 Biomarkers

    CSF YKL-40 and chitotriosidase levels are increased in individuals with clinical FTD syndromes, particularly due to AD pathology.

  2. The Inflammatory Marker YKL-40 Is Elevated in Cerebrospinal Fluid from Patients with Alzheimer's but Not Parkinson's Disease or Dementia with Lewy Bodies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. PloS one 2015-08-13 Biomarkers

    A major difference in the revised diagnostic criteria for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the incorporation of biomarkers to support a clinical diagnosis and allow the identification of preclinical AD due to AD neuropathological processes.
