Co-existing neuropathological comorbidities have been repeatedly reported to be extremely common in subjects dying with dementia due to Alzheimer disease. As these are likely to be additive to cognitive impairment, and may not be affected by molecularly-specific AD therapeutics, they may cause significant inter-individual response heterogeneity amongst subjects in AD clinical trials. Furthermore, while originally noted for the oldest old, recent reports have now documented high neuropathological comorbidity prevalences in younger old AD subjects, who are more likely to be included in clinical trials.

Background: Degeneration of the basal forebrain cholinergic system is a hallmark feature shared by Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Lewy body disease (LBD) whereas hippocampus atrophy is more specifically related to AD. We aimed to investigate the relationship between basal forebrain and hippocampus atrophy, cognitive decline, and neuropathology in a large autopsy sample.
Methods: Data were obtained from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC).
Assessment of stigma among patients living with Parkinson's disease: an exploratory study.

Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100050, China.
Objective: This cross-sectional study aims to assess the levels of stigma among patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and identify the demographic and clinical factors influencing both internal and external stigma.
Materials And Methods: A total of 200 patients diagnosed with PD were recruited from Beijing Tiantan Hospital between June 2023 and June 2024 using convenience sampling. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews, including demographic information, disease severity assessed via the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), and stigma levels measured using the 24-item Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI).
Distinct CSF α-synuclein aggregation profiles associated with Alzheimer's disease phenotypes and MCI-to-AD conversion.
J Prev Alzheimers Dis
February 2025
The ADNI is detailed in Supplemental Acknowledgments.
Background: α-Synuclein (α-Syn) pathology is present in 30-50 % of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, and its interactions with tau proteins may further exacerbate pathological changes in AD. However, the specific role of different aggregation forms of α-Syn in the progression of AD remains unclear.
Objectives: To explore the relationship between various aggregation types of CSF α-Syn and Alzheimer's disease progression.
Associations of Voice Metrics with Postural Function in Parkinson's Disease.

Neuromodulation Center and Center for Clinical Research Learning, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, 1575 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA 02115, USA.
Background: This study aimed to explore the potential associations between voice metrics of patients with PD and their motor symptoms.
Methods: Motor and vocal data including the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III (UPDRS-III), Harmonic-Noise Ratio (HNR), jitter, shimmer, and smoothed cepstral peak prominence (CPPS) were analyzed through exploratory correlations followed by univariate linear regression analyses. We employed these four voice metrics as independent variables and the total and sub-scores of the UPDRS-III as dependent variables.
