Clinical subtypes of Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) can present as a variety of clinical profiles. Although the most common presentation is that of a progressive amnestic disorder with subsequent involvement of other cognitive functions and personality alterations, there are numerous other clinical profiles. AD can present as a focal cortical degenerative syndrome with the clinical features dependent on the regions of the brain involved. Some of these syndromes include disturbances of language, visuospatial skills, attentional functions, executive processes and praxis. The neuropathological substrate of these disorders is variable and can include AD. Recently, the Lewy body variant of AD has been described. Finally, other modifying features that affect the progression of AD, such as extrapyramidal symptoms and myoclonus, are also discussed. Although the progressive amnestic form of AD is the most common presentation, other variations on the clinical syndrome can be important to identify because they may have implications for prognosis and treatment.

  • Genetic variants that increase risk for AD also influence CSF Aβ1-42 levels, including pathogenic mutations in APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2, as well as APOE.

    “In targeted analyses, it has been shown that genetic variants that increase risk for AD also influence CSF Aβ1–42 levels, including pathogenic mutations in APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2, as well as APOE [208–210].”

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.
