Common age‐related neuropathologies and yearly variability in cognition

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Objective Cognitive variability is a potentially important source of heterogeneity in longitudinal cognitive profiles. We examined the extent to which common age‐related neuropathologies including Lewy bodies and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) contribute to ...

Transcriptome analyses of 7-day-old zebrafish larvae possessing a familial Alzheimer’s disease-like mutation in psen1 indicate effects on oxidative phosphorylation, ECM and MCM functions, and iron homeostasis

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Early-onset familial Alzheimer’s disease (EOfAD) is promoted by dominant mutations, enabling the study of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenic mechanisms through generation of EOfAD-like mutations in animal models.

CheXseen: Unseen Disease Detection for Deep Learning Interpretation of Chest X-rays [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
We systematically evaluate the performance of deep learning models in the presence of diseases not labeled for or present during training. First, we evaluate whether deep learning models trained on a subset of diseases (seen diseases) can detect the presence of any one of a larger set of diseases.

A REVIEW OF BIOCHEMICAL MARKERS FOR EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE [PDF]

American Journal of Neuroscience, 2012
Alzheimer’s disease, the most prevalent type of dementia, affects the life of elderly, to such extent that it impairs the ability to perform routine functions as well. The impairment of normal functions not only affects the patients but the family members as well.

Independent effects of white matter hyperintensities on cognitive, neuropsychiatric, and functional decline: a longitudinal investigation using the National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center Uniform Data Set

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2019
Background Longitudinal investigations are needed to improve understanding of the contributions of cerebral small vessel disease to the clinical manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease, particularly in the early disease stages.

Brain autopsies of critically ill COVID-19 patients demonstrate heterogeneous profile of acute vascular injury, inflammation and age-linked chronic brain diseases

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
Background This study examined neuropathological findings of patients who died following hospitalization in an intensive care unit with SARS-CoV-2. Methods Data originate from 20 decedents who underwent brain autopsy followed by ex-vivo imaging and ...

Longitudinal chemokine profile expression in a blood-brain barrier model from Alzheimer transgenic versus wild-type mice

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Alzheimer’s disease is widely described since the discovery of histopathological lesions in Mrs. Auguste Deter in 1906. However to date, there is no effective treatment to deal with the many cellular and molecular alterations.

Ontology Based Information Extraction for Disease Intelligence [PDF]

International Journal of Research in Computer Science, 2 (6): pp. 7-19, November 2012. doi:10.7815/ijorcs.26.2012.051, 2012
Disease Intelligence (DI) is based on the acquisition and aggregation of fragmented knowledge of diseases at multiple sources all over the world to provide valuable information to doctors, researchers and information seeking community. Some diseases have their own characteristics changed rapidly at different places of the world and are reported on ...
