A Meta-Analysis of Cytokines in Alzheimer's Disease

TLDR
The results strengthen the clinical evidence that AD is accompanied by an inflammatory response, particularly higher peripheral concentrations of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, TGF-β,IL-12 and IL-18 and higher CSF concentrations of T GF-β.

Altered Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid Inflammatory Cascades in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease

TL;DR: In the early stages of neurodegeneration, inflammatory factors driving cognitive impairment may be derived more from systemic than CNS responses, and alterations in trophic factor expression may largely originate within the CNS, although they could be propagated by neuroinflammation.

Premna odorata extract as a protective agent on neurotoxic effect of aluminum: neurochemical, molecular, and histopathological alterations.

TL;DR: Premna odorata extract could be important in improving and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders as it was able to reduce oxidative stress, DNA damage, biochemical alterations, and histopathological changes in rats exposed to AlCl 3 toxicity.

Glibenclamide modulates microglial function and attenuates Aβ deposition in 5XFAD mice.

TL;DR: The data suggests that glibenclamide may be a therapeutic option for AD treatment and reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines and proteins in the LPS-induced microglial cells.

Early inflammation–associated factors blunt sterol regulatory element-binding proteins-1-mediated lipogenesis in high-fat diet-fed APPSWE/PSEN1dE9 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: Early inflammation–associated factors most likely diminish HFD‐induced hepatic lipid deposition by inhibiting SREBP‐1‐mediated de novo lipogenesis, thus driving substrate flux to glucose production for hyperglycemia and hepatic insulin resistance in T2D development.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis

TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.

Operating characteristics of a rank correlation test for publication bias.

TL;DR: In this paper, an adjusted rank correlation test is proposed as a technique for identifying publication bias in a meta-analysis, and its operating characteristics are evaluated via simulations, and the test statistic is a direct statistical analogue of the popular funnel-graph.
