Alzbiomarker Cross Disease
This dataset organizes published data on fluid biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease and other related conditions. Measurements of biomarker levels from cerebrospinal fluid and blood in non-AD conditions are compared to levels in Alzheimer’s disease, and similar studies are meta-analyzed and visualized in a forest plot. See our Methods page for more details.
Meta-analyses of studies comparing biomarkers in non-AD conditions to controls are beyond the scope of Alzbiomarker.
The heatmap and the table below provide a guide to navigate the meta-analysis results that are available in this dataset. The colors in the heatmap represent the effect size for each meta-analysis: Blue indicates that the level of the biomarker in the non-AD condition is lower than the level in Alzheimer’s disease, and red indicates an increased level in the non-AD condition compared to Alzheimer’s disease. Meta-analyses that have a p value less than 0.0001 are indicated with bolded text. Filter the results by toggling the choices available on the top of the heatmap.
