Increased blood-brain barrier permeability is associated with dementia and diabetes but not amyloid pathology or APOE genotype
Open accessAbstract
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction might be an important component of many neurodegenerative disorders. In this study, we investigated its role in dementia using large clinical cohorts. The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/plasma albumin ratio (Qalb), an indicator of BBB (and blood-CSF barrier) permeability, was measured in a total of 1015 individuals. The ratio was increased in patients with Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies or Parkinson's disease dementia, subcortical vascular dementia, and frontotemporal dementia compared with controls. However, this measure was not changed during preclinical or prodromal Alzheimer's disease and was not associated with amyloid positron emission tomography or APOE genotype. The Qalb was increased in diabetes mellitus and correlated positively with CSF biomarkers of angiogenesis and endothelial dysfunction (vascular endothelial growth factor, intracellular adhesion molecule 1, and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1). In healthy elderly, high body mass index and waist-hip ratio predicted increased Qalb 20 years later. In summary, BBB permeability is increased in major dementia disorders but does not relate to amyloid pathology or APOE genotype. Instead, BBB impairment may be associated with diabetes and brain microvascular damage.

Qalb is elevated in individuals with preclinical Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease without vascular risk factors, and Alzheimer's disease with vascular risk factors.
“Qalb is elevated in individuals with preclinical AD (229), MCI (421), AD without vascular risk factors (287, 545, 546), and AD with vascular risk factors (67, 68, 74, 629).”
From Blood-Brain Barrier: From Physiology to Disease and Back (2019) · cites this paper as [287]
The Results (‘The Qalb in dementias’; page unavailable) report higher Qalb in AD patients than controls. The Results (‘Risk factors for abnormal Qalb’; page unavailable) also associate higher Qalb with diabetes in the dementia cohort, but do not separately establish that it is elevated in AD patients with vascular risk factors. This citation is attached to that AD-with-vascular-risk-factors part of the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIncreased Qalb and CSF-to-serum IgG ratio are observed early in Parkinson's disease patients before dementia.
“Increased Qalb (287, 288, 362, 474) and CSF-to-serum IgG ratio (474) are observed early in PD patients before dementia.”
From Blood-Brain Barrier: From Physiology to Disease and Back (2019) · cites this paper as [287]
The Results (‘The Qalb in dementias’; page not provided) report increased Qalb in a combined dementia with Lewy bodies/Parkinson’s disease with dementia group. They do not establish that Qalb is increased early in Parkinson’s disease before dementia. This source is cited for the Qalb portion of the sentence, not the IgG-ratio portion. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
