Unsuspected involvement of spinal cord in Alzheimer Disease

2019-06-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Brain atrophy is an established biomarker for dementia, yet spinal cord involvement has not been investigated to date. As the spinal cord is relaying sensorimotor control signals from the cortex to the peripheral nervous system and viceversa, it is indeed a very interesting question to assess whether it is affected by atrophy in a disease that is known for its involvement of cognitive domains f...
