Importance: Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) is a severe genetic retinopathy caused by variants in the CYP4V2 gene. Currently, there is no approved treatment for BCD.
Objective: To evaluate safety and vision outcomes following gene therapy with adeno-associated virus (AAV) encoding CYP4V2 (rAAV-hCYP4V2, NGGT001 [Next Generation Gene Therapeutics]).
Background: Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a language-led dementia associated with underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD) or frontotemporal lobar degeneration pathology. As part of the Alzheimer's spectrum, logopenic (lv) PPA may be particularly difficult to distinguish from amnestic AD, due to overlapping clinical features.

Additionally, Artificial Intelligence, particularly predictive machine learning (ML) Models, has been established as one of the more powerful approaches to building reliable models that might be useful as an early predictor for Mental disorders. Specifically, one of the current challenges in brain disorders is identifying patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) that might be converted to Alzheimer's (AD) or other types of dementia.
