Metabolic correlates of late midlife cognitive outcomes: findings from the 1946 British Birth Cohort

Rebecca Green et al.

Summary: Green et al. identified metabolic mechanisms underlying cognitive function in late midlife, highlighting key metabolites that may serve as markers of cognitive health and dementia risk. Childhood cognition and education were found to have a significant impact on many associations. Through a study of the British 1946 Birth Cohort, the researchers explored the relationship between metabolites and cognitive outcomes in the seventh decade of life, adjusting for influencing life course factors. They discovered 155 metabolites, 10 pathways, and 5 network modules associated with cognitive outcomes, with 35 metabolites identified as promising marker candidates.

Circulating metabolites are associated with brain atrophy and white matter hyperintensities

Francisca A. de Leeuw et al.

Summary: The study found that high glucose levels were associated with brain atrophy and WMH, while levels of small HDL particles were linked to brain atrophy. The research suggests that circulating metabolites may help in the development of future intervention trials.

Association between polygenic risk score of Alzheimer's disease and plasma phosphorylated tau in individuals from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative

Anna Zettergren et al.

Summary: The study revealed that polygenic risk for AD, including APOE, was associated with plasma p-tau181 regardless of diagnostic or A beta pathology status, while polygenic risk for AD beyond APOE was only linked to plasma p-tau181 in individuals with MCI and A beta positivity.

Transitioning from cerebrospinal fluid to blood tests to facilitate diagnosis and disease monitoring in Alzheimer's disease

D. O. T. Alawode et al.

Summary: Alzheimer's disease is increasingly prevalent worldwide, with a need for earlier and more secure diagnosis techniques. Current biomarker-based guidelines for AD diagnosis heavily rely on neuroimaging and CSF sampling, while blood-based biomarkers show potential for more accessible and cost-effective testing. Plasma neurofilament light chain and phosphorylated tau exhibit promise, but further comparisons are needed for p-tau to differentiate AD from non-AD dementias reliably. Plasma amyloid beta could serve as an early screening tool, but requires precise tests and robust pre-analytical protocols.

Identifying individuals with high risk of Alzheimer's disease using polygenic risk scores

Ganna Leonenko et al.

Summary: Polygenic Risk Scores for Alzheimer's disease offer unique possibilities for reliably identifying individuals at high and low risk. The study shows that the best prediction accuracy is achieved with a model including APOE and a polygenic score excluding APOE. Standardizing PRS against the population mean makes individuals' scores comparable between studies.
