Open AccessDistinct effects of cholesterol profile components on amyloid and vascular burdens
Cholesterol plays important roles in β-amyloid (Aβ) metabolism and atherosclerosis. However, the relationships of plasma cholesterol levels with Aβ and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) burdens are not full...

Open AccessCognitive trajectories of patients with focal ß-amyloid deposition
The presence of ß-amyloid (Aß) in the brain can be identified using amyloid PET. In clinical practice, the amyloid PET is interpreted based on dichotomous visual rating, which renders focal Aß accumulation be ...
