Neurodegenerative Plasma Biomarkers for Prediction of Hippocampal Atrophy in Older Adults with Suspected Alzheimer’s Disease in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo
2024-09-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> The hippocampus is one of the first brain structures affected by Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and its atrophy is a strong indicator of the disease. This study investigates the ability of plasma biomarkers of AD and AD-related dementias— amyloid-β (Aβ42/40), phosphorylated tau-181 (p-tau181), neurofilament light (NfL), and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)—to predict hippoca...
