Background: Although Amyloid-beta and Tau are the hallmarks of Alzheimer's Disease (AD), other protein pathways such as endothelial dysfunction may be involved and may precede cognitive symptoms. Our objective was to characterize the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomic profiles focusing on cardiometabolic-related protein pathways in individuals on the AD spectrum.
Methods: We performed CSF and plasma-targeted proteomics (276 proteins) from 354 participants of the Brain Stress Hypertension and Aging Program (BSHARP), of which 8% had preclinical AD, and 24% had MCI due to AD.

Background: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) restores cellular immunity, significantly reducing AIDS-related mortality and morbidity thus improving the quality of life among People living with HIV (PLHIV). Studies done in several countries show a decline in AIDS defining cancers (ADCs) with the introduction of ART however the increased longevity has led to the increase of Non-AIDS defining cancers (NADCs). The study was aimed at studying the changing spectrum and trends of cancer among Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) patients in southwestern Uganda.
