The lack of an in-vivo pathology marker for synuclein pathology has been a long standing challenge for dementia for Lewy bodies (DLB) research. This issue is critically important for phase II trials, which are often small, requiring the precise measurement of the biological effects, whether disease modifying or symptomatic. Recent advances have enabled the determination of alpha-synuclein pathology status with CSF measurements, using aggregation assays [RT-QUIC].

Dementia patients often received one clinical diagnosis, yet most of these cases present multiple underlying pathologies. Bringing the transition from clinical-based to biological-based diagnosis holds promise with the diagnostic criteria proposed by the Alzheimer's Association (AA) Revised Criteria for Diagnosis and Staging of Alzheimer's Disease and the Neuronal Synuclein Disease Integrated Staging System (NSD-ISS). This session aims to explore the practical implications of the AA revised criteria for diagnosing and designing clinical trials in Lewy body disease (LBD).

Background: TREM2 signaling has been implicated in Alzheimer's Disease (AD). TREM2 regulates microglial states and functions such as phagocytosis. The most prominent TREM signaling adapter is DAP12, encoded by TYROBP.

Remyelination, of the myelin sheath by oligodendrocytes, is a process that may be impaired in neurodegenerative diseases. Depending on the severity of the disease, there occurs loss or partial damage of the myelin sheath surrounding the neuron leading to memory deficits.

Background: With global dementia prevalence estimated to reach 139 million by 2050,(1) early detection of dementia-causing diseases is crucial for promoting preventative interventions. Wearable technologies have the potential to detect early signs; however, they need to be acceptable amongst users. We explored user's perspectives on the acceptability of wearable devices.
