Scientists have created a blood test that can estimate when Alzheimer’s symptoms are likely to begin. By measuring a protein called p-tau217, the model predicts symptom onset within roughly three to ...

A recent study has found that there may be a link between artificial sweenters and dementia.

Scientists have developed a blood test that could predict Alzheimer's symptoms years in advance using p-tau217 protein levels ...

It has the potential to predict symptom onset so accurately "we could use it in individual clinical care,” said one ...

The Alzheimer’s ‘clock’ could make it easier to treat the disease early, before memory problems appear. A simple blood test might one day serve as a molecular ‘clock’ that predicts not only whether ...

The traditional model of memory proposes that different types of long term memory are processed in separate brain modules. New research shows activation of these modules overlaps.

A new blood test could predict when Alzheimer’s will strike — years before symptoms begin. Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have created a way to estimate when a ...

When we think of brain diseases, we often fear memory loss. But with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), it is movement that slowly slips away, while the mind, ...

Tests that could reveal when Alzheimer’s disease will emerge, while promising, are not ready for use in otherwise healthy people, scientists say ...

Researchers have built a blood-based “clock” that estimates when Alzheimer’s symptoms will likely begin, potentially years before any memory loss appears. The model, validated in two major ...

Older adults lose their ability to hear concrete sounds first, and with this loss come the more difficult aspects of hearing: the fuzzy edges of speech. As your hearing deteriorates, you are likely ...
