Application of the ATN classification scheme in a population without dementia: Findings from the EPAD cohort

Silvia Ingala et al.

Summary: The study classified non-demented EPAD participants and assessed their neuropsychological and imaging profiles. Age and cerebrovascular burden progressed with biomarker positivity, with p-tau driving cognitive dysfunction and memory and language domains affected in the earliest stages.

Research diagnostic criteria for Alzheimer's disease: findings from the LipiDiDiet randomized controlled trial

Anna Rosenberg et al.

Summary: The study explored the utility of IWG-1 criteria in recruiting individuals for AD clinical trials and found that the criteria reliably identified individuals with AD pathology. More pragmatic and easily applicable selection criteria may be preferred in certain situations.

Taking the A Train? Limited Consistency of Aβ42 and the Aβ42/40 Ratio in the AT(N) Classification

Dominique Gouilly et al.

Summary: The consistency between cerebrospinal fluid amyloid-beta (A beta(42/40) ratio and A beta(42) in the AT(N) classification system is limited. Most false A+T- patients were not clinically diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, the interchangeability of A beta(42/40) ratio and A beta(42) is restricted in classifying patients in a clinical setting using the AT(N) scheme.

Clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease: recommendations of the International Working Group

Bruno Dubois et al.

Summary: The use of biomarkers in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease has limitations and should be used cautiously in a clinical setting, restricted to individuals with specific phenotypes and positive biomarkers. Biomarker-positive cognitively unimpaired individuals should be considered at-risk for progression to Alzheimer's disease.

Developing the ATX(N) classification for use across the Alzheimer disease continuum

Harald Hampel et al.

Summary: Breakthroughs in highly accurate fluid and neuroimaging biomarkers have transformed the conceptual approach to Alzheimer's disease from symptom-based to a clinical-biological construct. The AT(N) and evolving ATX(N) systems play crucial roles in categorizing individuals and potential applications in clinical trials and future practice. Current challenges include validation, standardization, and real-world application of these systems.

Evaluation of the ATN model in a longitudinal memory clinic sample with different underlying disorders

C. Eckerstrom et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the usefulness of the 2018 NIA-AA research framework in a longitudinal memory clinic study, finding that the ATN system is supportive in detecting early AD or mixed dementia, with the majority of patients converting to AD and mixed dementia belonging to A positive ATN groups.

Brain Atrophy Subtypes and the ATN Classification Scheme in Alzheimer's Disease

Nira Cedres et al.

Summary: The study investigated the association between atrophy subtypes of Alzheimer's disease, the ATN classification scheme, and key demographic and clinical factors in two different cohorts of ADNI and KIDS. Results showed distinct clusters based on age, WMSA burden, AD subtypes, and ATN profiles with APOE ε4 carriers more frequently showing certain profiles. The findings align with the recent framework for biological subtypes of AD where a combination of risk factors, protective factors, and brain pathologies determine the subtypes of AD patients.
