J Alzheimers Dis 25:373-81. 2011..Thus, the CSF biomarker candidate of BACE1 activity was associated with hippocampus atrophy in AD in a robust manner and may reflect neurotoxic amyloid-β-related processes...
Neuroimaging markers for the prediction and early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease dementiaMichael Ewers
Department of Radiology, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA
Trends Neurosci 34:430-42. 2011..A dynamic sequence model of changes that occur in neuroimaging markers during the different disease stages is presented and the predictive value of multimodal neuroimaging for AD dementia is considered...
Body mass index is associated with biological CSF markers of core brain pathology of Alzheimer's diseaseMichael Ewers
University of California, VA Medical Center, Center for Neuroimaging of Neurodegenerative Diseases, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94121, USA
Neurobiol Aging 33:1599-608. 2012..There was no interaction between CSF signature and diagnosis or apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype. In conclusion, lower BMI is indicative of AD pathology as assessed with CSF-based biomarkers in demented and nondemented elderly subjects...
