Newest firstAtypical parkinsonian syndromes are distinguished from Parkinson's disease (PD) by additional neurological signs and characteristic underlying neuropathology. However, they can be diagnostically challenging, rapidly progressive and are often diagnosed late in disease course. Their different demographic features and prognoses are well studied, but the accompanying cognitive and psychiatric features may also facilit…
Open article record in new tab ↗Plasma biomarkers have emerged as powerful tools to identify Alzheimers disease (AD) pathology and are increasingly used for diagnosis and monitoring. However, their wider differential diagnostic and prognostic value in neurodegenerative diseases other than AD remains unclear. This study tested and compared the diagnostic and prognostic performance of neurofilament light chain (NfL), p-tau217, A{beta}42/40 and GFA…
Open article record in new tab ↗Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common cause of early-onset dementia after Alzheimer disease (AD). Efforts in the field mainly focus on familial forms of disease (fFTDs), while studies of the genetic etiology of sporadic FTD (sFTD) have been less common. In the current work, we analyzed 4,685 sFTD cases and 15,308 controls looking for common genetic determinants for sFTD. We found a cluster of var…
Background Synaptic loss is characteristic of many neurodegenerative diseases; it occurs early and is strongly related to functional deficits. Objective In this longitudinal observational study, we determine the rate at which synaptic density is reduced in the primary tauopathies of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and we test the relationship with disease progression. Meth…
The relationship between in vivo synaptic density and molecular pathology in primary tauopathies is key to understanding the impact of tauopathy on functional decline and in informing new early therapeutic strategies. In this cross-sectional observational study, we determine the in vivo relationship between synaptic density and molecular pathology in the primary tauopathies of progressive supranuclear palsy and co…
Open article record in new tab ↗Understanding the cellular underpinnings of neurodegeneration remains a challenge; loss of synapses and dendritic arborization are characteristic and can be quantified in vivo, with [11C]UCB-J PET and MRI-based Orientation Dispersion Imaging (ODI), respectively. We aimed to assess how both measures are correlated, in 4R-tauopathies of progressive supranuclear palsy - Richardson's Syndrome (PSP-RS; n = 22) and amyl…
Open article record in new tab ↗The relationship between in vivo synaptic density and tau burden in primary tauopathies is key to understanding the impact of tauopathy on functional decline and in informing new early therapeutic strategies. In this cross-sectional observational study, we determine the in vivo relationship between synaptic density and molecular pathology, in the primary tauopathies of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and Cort…

We aimed to assess how both measures are correlated, in 4R-tauopathies of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP-RS; n = 22) and amyloid-negativ…
Open article record in new tab ↗Objective Differentiating idiopathic Parkinson's disease from atypical parkinsonian syndromes is challenging, especially in the early stages. We assessed whether the Revised Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination (ACE-R) could differentiate between parkinsonian syndromes and reflect longitudinal changes in cognition in these disorders. Methods The ACE-R was administered at baseline and after approximately 18 months t…
