TL;DR: In this paper, a longitudinal study of 128 patients with Alzheimer's disease was conducted, where the authors used the participant's age at baseline assessment and the parent's age to calculate the estimated years from expected symptom onset (age of the participant minus parent's ages at symptom onset).

TL;DR: It is found that autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease was associated with a series of pathophysiological changes over decades in CSF biochemical markers of Alzheimer’s disease, brain amyloid deposition, and brain metabolism as well as progressive cognitive impairment.

TL;DR: A reduction in the linear increase in the Aβ levels in CSF samples that is associated with amyloid deposition and a decreased CSF Aβ diurnal pattern associated with increasing age disrupt the normal physiology of Aβ dynamics and may contribute to AD.

TL;DR: With completion of enrollment of the first two drug arms, the DIAN‐TU now plans to add new drugs to the platform, designated as the Next Generation (NexGen) prevention trial.

TL;DR: A randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-arm trial of gantenerumab or solanezumab in participants with DIAD across asymptomatic and symptomatic disease stages was conducted in this paper.
