TL;DR: Results suggest that lactonase and, especially, Lp-PLA2 activities might represent novel candidate biomarkers for ASD.

TL;DR: A significant association between MetS and AD is found, mainly driven by large retrospective studies, while increased waist circumference seems to have a "protective role" probably due to reverse causality.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed an update meta-analysis of studies examining the association between atrial fibrillation and dementia and the relative impact of follow-up period on the risk of dementia.

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that the increase in peripheral BACE1 activity is a common feature of LOAD and VAD, thus underlying a further pathogenic link between these two forms of dementia.

TL;DR: The results indicate an intrinsic ability of tissue transglutaminase to bind calcium with high affinity and the necessity of careful reassessment of the enzyme regulatory pattern in relation to the concentrations of ligands in living cells, taking also in account effects of ligand on protein subcellular compartimentation.
