The Association of Alzheimer’s Disease-related Blood-based Biomarkers with Cognitive Screening Test Performance in the Congolese Population in Kinshasa

2023-08-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia, poses a significant global burden. Diagnosis typically involves invasive and costly methods like neuroimaging or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker testing of phosphorylated tau (p-tau) and amyloid-β 42/40 (Aβ 42/40 ). Such procedures are especially impractical in resource-constrained regions, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo...
