AbstractDementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) frequently coexists with Alzheimer’s disease pathology, yet the pattern of cortical microstructural injury and its relationship with amyloid, tau, and cerebrovascular pathologies remains unclear.

AbstractDeclining gait performance is seen in aging individuals, due to neural and systemic factors. Plasma biomarkers provide an accessible way to assess evolving brain changes; non-specific neurodegeneration (NfL, GFAP) or evolving Alzheimer’s disease (Aβ 42/40 ratio, P-Tau181). In a population-based cohort of older adults, we evaluate the hypothesis that plasma biomarkers of neurodegeneration and Alzheimer’s Disease pathology are associated with worse gait performance.

AbstractDetermining the genetic architecture of Alzheimer’s disease pathologies can enhance mechanistic understanding and inform precision medicine strategies. Here, we perform a genome-wide association study of cortical tau quantified by positron emission tomography in 3046 participants from 12 independent studies. The CYP1B1-RMDN2 locus is associated with tau deposition.

Abstract To evaluate the performance of Alzheimer disease (AD) cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in a tertiary neurology clinic setting with high frequency of non-AD cases, including normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). There were 534 patients who underwent AD CSF biomarkers (Roche Elecsys Aβ42, p-Tau181, total-Tau) from April 1, 2020, through April 23, 2021.

AbstractTo uncover molecular changes underlying blood-brain-barrier dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease, we performed single nucleus RNA sequencing in 24 Alzheimer’s disease and control brains and focused on vascular and astrocyte clusters as main cell types of blood-brain-barrier gliovascular-unit. The majority of the vascular transcriptional changes were in pericytes.

A New Framework for Dementia Nomenclature Abstract Importance Nomenclature in the field of neurodegenerative diseases presents a challenging problem. Inconsistent use of terms such as Alzheimer disease and dementia has compromised progress in clinical care, research, and development of therapeutics. Dementia-associated stigma further contributes to inconsistent and imprecise language.
