概括
使用视听奇怪任务 (VAB) 的磁脑电图 (MEG) 显示出作为检测阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 和轻度认知障碍 (MCI) 的可靠生物标志物具有前景. 这种神经成像技术可以区分健康个体和患有AD/MCI的人,有助于早期诊断.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 医疗成像医学成像
- 生物标志物 生物标志物
背景情况:
- 阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 的特点是认知能力下降,突触损失和粉样蛋白/蛋白病理.
- 早期发现AD需要敏感和可靠的生物标志物用于临床试验.
- 磁电脑电图 (M/EEG) 可以测量AD中的大脑功能变化.
研究的目的:
- 测试M/EEG生物标志物的敏感性和可靠性,以检测AD.
- 开发一种混合的视听奇怪 (VAB) 任务来测量神经反应.
- 评估M/EEG是否适合用于AD的实验医学研究.
主要方法:
- 同时的M/EEG被用来记录神经对听觉新奇性和图像-声音配对不匹配的反应.
- 参与者包括认知健康的老年人 (N=31) 和患有粉素阳性轻度认知障碍 (MCI) 或早期AD的人 (N=55).
- 在一小部分患者 (N=17) 中,在两周内评估了VAB任务的测试-重试可靠性.
主要成果:
- 健康的对照组对新鲜的声音表现出比不匹配的声音更强烈的神经反应.
- 患有AD/MCI的患者对不匹配的声音的神经反应增加,表明关联性学习受损.

746
Cardiac biomarkers are enzymes, proteins, and hormones released into the blood when cardiac cells are injured. They are powerful tools for triaging.
The essential diagnostic tools for detecting myocardial necrosis and monitoring individuals suspected of having acute coronary syndrome (ACS) include:
Troponins
Troponins, particularly cardiac troponins I and T, are the most precise and sensitive markers of myocardial injury. They are detectable within 4-6 hours of myocardial injury and remain...

01:19Blood Studies for Cardiovascular System II: CRP, Hcy, and Cardiac Natriuretic Peptide Markers
511
Cardiac biomarkers are critical in diagnosing, prognosing, and managing cardiovascular diseases. Routine measurement of specific biomarkers such as B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), C-reactive protein (CRP), and homocysteine (Hcy) is common practice in clinical settings to evaluate heart function and predict cardiovascular events.
These markers indicate stress or strain on the heart muscle:
Natriuretic Peptides (BNP)
Cardiac myocytes produce these hormones in response to ventricular stretching...
