Herpes infection upped risk in ApoE4 carriers, damaged brain tissue, and correlated with neurodegeneration markers in the CSF.
Sending low-intensity, gamma frequency electric current through the brain boosted short-term memory, perhaps by increasing cholinergic transmission.
A new trial will compare digital and blood-based biomarkers to amyloid PET scans in order to learn which ones best pick out early plaque accumulation.
The tau vaccine evoked a robust anti-tau antibody response, which curbed the rise in plasma NfL and CSF p-tau over two years. Cognitive decline continued.
