Incident Dementia in Elderly Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Germany

Christian Labenz et al.

Summary: In this population-based cohort study, elderly patients coded with NAFLD did not show an independent association with incident dementia. Risk assessment for dementia in patients with NAFLD should be conducted the same way as for patients burdened with metabolic disorders.

Prognostic accuracy of FIB-4, NAFLD fibrosis score and APRI for NAFLD-related events: A systematic review

Jenny Lee et al.

Summary: This study synthesized the existing literature on the ability of FIB-4, NFS, and APRI models in prognosticating NAFLD-related events. The results showed that these models have demonstrated good ability to risk stratify patients for liver-related morbidity and mortality, with inconsistent performance in predicting change in fibrosis stage. Further head-to-head studies are needed to validate their performance and refine models for prognosticating NAFLD events.

Liver fibrosis marker is an independent predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the general population

Yochai Schonmann et al.

Summary: The study found an independent association between liver fibrosis markers and cardiovascular disease (CVD), suggesting that fibrosis markers should be considered in primary-care risk assessment.

Association of APOE4 and Clinical Variability in Alzheimer Disease With the Pattern of Tau- and Amyloid-PET

Renaud La Joie et al.

Summary: Different clinical phenotypes in AD are associated with distinct patterns of tau but not amyloid pathology. Older age and APOE4 are risk factors for AD that also influence disease expression by promoting a more medial temporal lobe-predominant pattern of tau pathology.

The cortical origin and initial spread of medial temporal tauopathy in Alzheimer's disease assessed with positron emission tomography

Justin S. Sanchez et al.

Summary: Advances in molecular positron emission tomography have enabled accurate tracking of brain pathology in normal aging and dementia, providing insights into the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. This precise tracking of disease progression is crucial for natural history studies and prevention therapeutic trials.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cognitive function in middle-aged adults: the CARDIA study

Yariv Gerber et al.

Summary: In middle-aged adults, the inverse association between NAFLD and cognitive performance was attenuated after adjusting for cardiovascular disease risk factors. Instead, risk factors such as CVD history, hypertension, smoking, diabetes and hypertriglyceridemia were shown to have stronger associations with baseline cognitive performance and predictive of subsequent cognitive decline.

Elevated Inflammatory Markers and Arterial Stiffening Exacerbate Tau but Not Amyloid Pathology in Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment

Alexandra L. Clark et al.

Summary: The study revealed differential effects of pulse pressure and inflammation on Alzheimer's disease-related cerebrospinal fluid proteins, indicating that vascular risk is associated with greater AD pathology in both cognitively normal and mild cognitive impairment older adults.

Natural History of NAFLD

Raluca Pais et al.

Summary: The epidemiology and burden of chronic liver disease are changing globally, with NAFLD becoming a common cause of liver disease; the clinical phenotypes of NAFLD are heterogeneous, understanding and controlling factors related to disease progression are crucial.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Elizabeth E. Powell et al.

Summary: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common global health issue with significant associations with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, leading to serious complications like cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. While cardiovascular disease and extrahepatic malignancy are the main causes of death in NAFLD patients, advanced liver fibrosis is a key prognostic marker for liver-related outcomes and overall mortality.

Early detection of amyloid load using 18F-florbetaben PET

Santiago Bullich et al.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the population with earliest abnormal AP accumulation using F-18-florbetaben PET. Quantitative thresholds for early and established A beta deposition were developed, topography of A beta deposition was assessed, and A beta accumulation over time, progression to AD dementia from MCI, and tau deposition were examined.

Liver Bile Acid Changes in Mouse Models of Alzheimer's Disease

Harpreet Kaur et al.

Summary: Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, with studies suggesting the involvement of liver cholesterol and bile acid metabolism in its pathophysiology. Experimental results from two different AD mouse lines indicate fundamental deficiencies in liver cholesterol metabolism and bile acid synthesis.

Vijay R. Varma et al.

Summary: The study explored the impact of cholesterol catabolism and bile acid synthesis on dementia progression through sex-specific effects on signaling pathways in the brain. The findings suggest that modulation of bile acid signaling pathways in the brain may be a potential therapeutic target for dementia.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease does not increase dementia risk although histology data might improve risk prediction

Ying Shang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and dementia, finding no direct link between NAFLD and dementia risk. However, liver histology parameters, especially fibrosis, significantly improved the prediction of dementia risk.
