Các dấu ấn sinh học trong máu (blood-based biomarker – BBB) có thể giúp phát hiện sớm bệnh Alzheimer (AD), đặc biệt sau khi tiêu chuẩn chẩn đoán mới vừa được cập nhật, nhấn mạnh việc chẩn đoán dựa trên các dấu ấn sinh học cốt lõi. Kinh nghiệm ban đầu về sử dụng lecanemab, một trị liệu làm thay đổi tiến triển bệnh (DMT) dành cho bệnh nhân suy giảm nhận thức nhẹ hoặc sa sút trí tuệ nhẹ do AD, đã được chia sẻ tại hội nghị Advances in Medicine (AIM) 2025.

Among individuals without cognitive impairment, those with impaired kidney function exhibit increased levels of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) blood biomarkers, although they do not appear to be at increased risk of dementia compared with those who have preserved kidney function, according to new research.

A recent study has shown the association of greater arterial stiffening with both ocular (small) and peripheral (large) fiber neuropathies.

People with obstructive sleep apnoea seem predisposed to later development of Parkinson’s disease, but this risk can be mitigated by early treatment with continuous positive airway pressure, as reported in a study.

Plasma phosphorylated tau 217 (p-tau217) can identify pathological changes characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in older adults without cognitive impairment, according to a meta-analysis.

Researchers from the School of Life Sciences and the Gerald Choa Neuroscience Institute at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) have found that estradiol (E2) to progesterone (P4) (E2:P4) imbalance during perimenopause likely increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementia in women via oestrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα) dysfunction.

Higher levels of physical activity help fight dementia, especially for middle-aged and older adults, according to a study.
