Neutrophil-Lymphocytes Ratio as Potential Early Marker for Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

Mediators Inflamm
Background. Neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a noninvasive, inexpensive, and easily applicable marker of inflammation. Since immune dysregulation leading to inflammation is regarded as a hallmark of dementia, in particular Alzheimer’s disease (AD), we decided to investigate the potentials of NLR as a diagnostic and predictive biomarker in this ...

Oxidative Stress Indexes for Diagnosis of Health or Disease in Humans

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Oxidative stress (OS) is the imbalance between oxidant and antioxidant molecules, in favor of oxidants, that causes aging and disease. Many studies have been published that demonstrate the relationship between OS and human health and disease; however, the following questions arise: (i) how are we sure that the OS is present in a biological process? (ii)

Tai Chi Exercise Increases SOD Activity and Total Antioxidant Status in Saliva and Is Linked to an Improvement of Periodontal Disease in the Elderly

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Tai Chi on biological markers of oxidative stress in saliva and its relationship with periodontal disease (PD) in older adults. We carried out a quasi‐experimental study with a sample of 71 sedentary volunteers with PD who were divided into a control group of 34 subjects and an experimental group of ...

Effect of Tai Chi versus Walking on Oxidative Stress in Mexican Older Adults

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
It has recently been reported that the practice of Tai Chi reduces oxidative stress (OxS), but it is not clear whether walking or Tai Chi produces a greater antioxidant effect. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the practice of Tai Chi and walking on markers for OxS.

The landscape of dementia research, diagnosis, treatment, and care in Latin America

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Latin America is undergoing rapid population aging alongside a rising burden of dementia. While the region holds substantial potential for dementia risk reduction, challenges remain, such as delayed diagnoses, limited access to specialized care and biomarker testing, persistent stigma, and deep‐rooted structural inequities.
