Importance: The phase 3 randomized EMBARK trial evaluated enzalutamide with or without leuprolide in high-risk nonmetastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Eligibility relied on conventional imaging, which underdetects metastatic disease compared with prostate-specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET).
Objective: To describe the staging information obtained by PSMA-PET/computed tomography (PSMA-PET/CT) in a patient cohort eligible for the EMBARK trial.

Background: Amyloid-β accumulation is a pivotal factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression. As treatment for AD has not been successful yet, the most effective approach lies in early diagnosis and the subsequent delay of disease progression. Hence, this study introduces a deep learning model to predict amyloid-β accumulation in the brain.

Background: P-tau217 has emerged as a compelling alternative to long-established p-tau181 to accurately measure tau modifications in biofluids in response to brain Abeta and tau deposition in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Understanding the specificity and significance of p-tau217 changes over AD stages is critical to interpret its potential response to treatments against Abeta and tau aggregation.
Methods: We measured p-tau217 phosphorylation by mass spectrometry.

Background: Synaptic loss, a key indicator of cognitive decline in neurodegenerative diseases, lacks a clinical biomarker, but emerging PET-scan tracers targeting synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) show promise. The current understanding of regional changes in neurodegenerative disorders and the distribution of SV2A in the human brain is quite limited. This knowledge gap presents challenges when assessing the feasibility of using SV2A tracers in therapeutic applications.

Background: Over-representation of several health conditions (such as diabetes, hearing loss, etc) have been identified up to 15 years before Alzheimer's Disease (AD) diagnosis through the study of electronic health records [1]. Mechanisms underlying these associations remain elusive. We propose to study the associations between these co-pathologies (proxied by genetic risk scores), and the physiological and clinical evolution of AD patients.
