Summary

This longitudinal study compared emerging plasma biomarkers for neurodegenerative disease between controls, patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Lewy body dementia (LBD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). This large study shows the role of plasma biomarkers in differentiating patients with different dementias, and at monitoring longitudinal change.
