Explore the Role of Frailty as a Contributor to the Association Between AT(N) Profiles and Cognition in Alzheimer's Disease.

Background: The relationship between Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related pathology and cognition was not exactly consistent.

Objective: To explore whether the association between AD pathology and cognition can be moderated by frailty.

Methods: We included 1711 participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative database.

Amyloid pathology mediates the associations between plasma fibrinogen and cognition in non-demented adults.

Though previous studies revealed the potential associations of elevated levels of plasma fibrinogen with dementia, there is still limited understanding regarding the influence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers on these associations. We sought to investigate the interrelationships among fibrinogen, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) AD biomarkers, and cognition in non-demented adults. We included 1996 non-demented adults from the Chinese Alzheimer's Biomarker and LifestylE (CABLE) study and 337 from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database.

Associations of Frailty with Neuropsychiatric Symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease: A Longitudinal Study.

Background: Frailty is a vulnerability state increasing the risk of many adverse health outcomes, but little is known about the effects of frailty on neuropsychiatric health.

Objective: To explore the associations between frailty and the risk of neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPSs) in Alzheimer's disease (AD), especially in its different clinical stages.

Methods: We included 2,155 individuals assessed using modified frailty index-11 (mFI-11), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) and Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q) in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI).

Associations between liver function and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease pathology in non-demented adults: The CABLE study.

Liver function has been suggested as a possible factor in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) development. However, the association between liver function and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of AD biomarkers remains unclear. In this study, we analyzed the data from 1687 adults without dementia from the Chinese Alzheimer's Biomarker and LifestylE study to investigate differences in liver function between pathological and clinical AD groups, as defined by the 2018 National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association Research Framework.
