Objective Plasma biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology are frequently tested in specialized research settings, which limits the generalizability of findings. Using electronic health records and banked plasma, we evaluated plasma biomarkers—phosphorylated tau 217 (p‐tau217), β‐amyloid 1–42/1–40 (Aβ42/Aβ40) and p‐tau217/Aβ42—in a real‐world ...

We investigated whether tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) preferentially affects sulci, and particularly sulcal depths.
