Clinical and neuroimaging characterization of Chinese dementia patients with PSEN1 and PSEN2 mutations.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The preclinical patterns of biological markers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) in vivo need further exploration. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate CSF biomarkers, regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and cognitive performance in cognitively healthy older individuals. METHOD:Within a 2-week peri...
