Homocysteine in cerebrovascular disease: An independent risk factor for subcortical vascular encephalopathy [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for obstructive large-vessel disease. Here, we studied plasma concentrations of homocysteine and vitamins in patients suffering from subcortical vascular encephalopathy (SVE), a cerebral small-vessel disease leading ...

Vascular dementia is almost always associated with organic brain lesions due to ischemia, not with arteriosclerosis alone. In Japan, more than 50% of dementia in population older than 65 years are of vascular origin. Vascular dementia occurs with diffuse vascular lesions in the cerebral white matter or circumscribed lesions in particular areas such as ...

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.
