ABSTRACT Objective Blood biomarkers are increasingly critical for non‐invasive Alzheimer's Disease (AD) diagnostics and research but typically require on‐site processing. Remote point‐of‐care collection methods could enhance biomarker testing in clinical and research settings.

Subjective Cognitive Concerns and Cognitive Trajectories in Parkinson's Disease: Biomarker Impact
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the relationship of subjective cognitive concerns (SCC) with biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD), neurodegeneration, and Parkinson's disease (PD) and domain‐specific cognitive trajectories among cognitively unimpaired persons with de novo PD. Method Cognitively unimpaired participants with SCC (n = 294) and without SCC (

ABSTRACT Objective To identify inflammatory analytes in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma associated with cognitive decline in cognitively normal (CN) older adults at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods In a longitudinal study of 118 CN older adults (65–80 years, 54% APOE ε4, 26% preclinical AD), 1331 CSF and 1501 plasma analytes were ...

Frequency and Phenotype of Coexisting Aquaporin‐4 and Autoimmune Encephalitis Autoantibodies
ABSTRACT Among 9457 aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) immunoglobulin G‐positive patients, 2071 underwent autoimmune encephalitis antibody testing and 85 (4%) had coexisting antibodies, most commonly cerebrospinal fluid glial fibrillary acidic protein‐IgG and N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor‐IgG, or serum high‐titer GAD65‐IgG.

ABSTRACT Objective Inherited ataxias are clinically diverse neurodegenerative diseases, complicating the choice of outcome measures for trials. In spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), regulatory concerns about the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) caused a shift toward functional SARA (f‐SARA), contributing to pivotal trial failure.
