Cerebrospinal Fluid Classical Biomarker Levels in Mixed vs. Pure AT (AT) Alzheimer's Disease.

: Alzheimer's disease (AD) may present with pure (typical or atypical) and mixed phenotypes, sometimes causing difficulties in (differential) diagnosis. In order to achieve a diagnostic accuracy as high as possible, the diagnosis of AD during life depends on various biomarkers, including the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers. : Classical CSF AD biomarkers were determined in a total of 61 patients, classified as both beta amyloid- and tau-positive AT (or AT according to the recently revised Alzheimer Association criteria for diagnosis and staging of AD).

Heterozygous p62/SQSTM1 mutation and right temporal variant of frontotemporal dementia: Α case report.

Mutations in sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) gene have been associated with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal dementia - ALS (FTD-ALS), and very recently, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), paget disease of bone (PDB), distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV), and neurodegenerative disorders in childhood. We present a case of right temporal variant of FTD (rtvFTD) with heterozygous mutation (c.823_824del(p.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Total, Phosphorylated and Oligomeric A-Synuclein in Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression Study.

: The diagnostic accuracy for Parkinson's disease (PD), a synucleinopathy, based on diagnostic criteria is suboptimal. A biomarker for synucleinopathies is pivotal both from a clinical and from a research point of view. CSF a-synuclein has been extensively studied over the past two decades as a candidate biomarker of synucleinopathies.

A case of corticobasal syndrome possibly associated with anti-Yo antibodies.

Introduction: Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a rare form of atypical parkinsonism, most commonly caused by neurodegenerative disorders. Autoimmune underlying conditions are extremely rare, and anti-Yo antibody-associated CBS has not been reported yet.

Case Report: Herein, we describe a case of a 68-year-old woman presenting with progressive dysarthria, gait instability and difficulty using her left hand with subacute deterioration during the last 3 months.

Objective Sleep Function is Associated with Hippocampal Subfield Volumes in Community-Dwelling Adults.

Background: Sleep patterns often shift as people age, a phenomenon frequently associated with the onset of neurodegenerative conditions. Additionally, distinct alterations occur in brain structure as individuals grow older, particularly within the hippocampus, a region known for its role in cognition and sleep regulation. Yet, how exactly do changes in sleep relate to specific subfields within the hippocampus is still unclear.
